Plan for an Extended Vacation in Vung Tau

Aside from the enchanting beaches, Vung Tau is an ideal destination for you and your family to explore during the holidays, featuring pristine forests.

This holiday season provides the perfect conditions for extended exploratory journeys along the cool, refreshing beaches of Vung Tau, immersing yourself in the pristine atmosphere.

Discovering the Untouched and Idyllic Beaches

Chi Linh Beach

Here, you can freely immerse yourself in the cool, refreshing water, playfully frolic with the rhythmic waves, and listen to the sea's melody mingling with the chorus of young birds in the lush treetops. During noon, find solace beneath the green tree canopy, letting your soul drift away with the sounds of waves and rustling leaves, allowing you to forget the sweltering days in the urban hustle and bustle.

Moon Crescent Beach

Retaining its natural beauty, surrounded by majestic rocky cliffs on three sides, reaching Moon Crescent Beach requires ascending gentle slopes, following narrow paths under lush green canopies. Inhale the fresh air and embrace the cool, refreshing breeze that awaits you upon arrival. This beach is a favorite spot for adventure seekers and those who appreciate serene, peaceful, and cool surroundings.

Doi Nhai Beach

Unlike the lively and bustling beaches in Vung Tau, Doi Nhai is tranquil and secluded. Explored mainly by backpackers and locals, spend a night camping to admire the night sea sky or leisurely stroll at dawn, welcoming the new day with the melodic songs of the birds is an interesting experience when you visit this place.

Binh Chau - Phuoc Buu Primeval Forest

The only relatively pristine coastal primeval forest remaining in the South, this forest stretches along the coastline, interspersed with gentle slopes covered with lush green trees. Stepping into this ancient forest, visitors will feel the gentle coolness that is enough to captivate and make you forget the summer heat.

Sometimes, you may come across gentle streams, meandering and flowing smoothly into the open sea, creating a picturesque beauty. Gazing upon the forest canopy, travelers will discover countless rare and beautiful flowers. Visiting Binh Chau-Phuoc Buu allows you to immerse yourself in the pristine and majestic nature.

Famous landmarks

Christ the Redeemer Statue

Constructed in 1974 and completed after 19 years, the Christ the Redeemer statue faces south, overlooking the sea, with a compassionate and merciful expression. Perched atop Tao Phung mountain at an elevation of over 200 meters, visitors can feel the refreshing sea breeze and enjoy the panoramic view of Vung Tau after ascending the 133 spiral stairs nestled within the statue.

Hon Ba Temple

Hon Ba Island is situated in the vast, ever-moving sea, and it hosts a small temple of the same name. Here, visitors can immerse themselves in the tranquil space filled with the fragrance of incense or marvel at the picturesque and untouched scenery around the island. The crystal-clear, cool seawater reflects colorful and shaped rock formations in the distance. The combination of rocks and sea creates the distinctive feature of Hon Ba Island. Particularly during sunrise or sunset, the island becomes even more radiant as the gentle light reflects and shimmers in a dreamy ambiance.

The Tranquil Pagoda of Buddha

Situated on the grand slopes of Mount Lon in Vung Tau city, the charm of this temple lies in the seamless blend of religious architecture and the natural landscape. Noteworthy is the Octagonal Tower standing at 19 meters tall and the meditating Buddha Thich Ca statue atop a lotus-shaped structure on the mountain's back, visible even from a distance for awe-inspiring admiration.

The Tranquil Pagoda of Buddha is a sanctuary, steeped in the mystical ambiance of a celestial abode. It stands as the most renowned landmark among the scenic wonders of Vung Tau. Each year, it welcomes tens of thousands of pilgrims and tourists from all corners.
