Known as a 'sandy paradise,' the Quang Phu Sand Dunes resemble a small desert nestled in the sun-baked Central region, an unmissable destination when you explore Quang Binh.
Quang Phu Sand Dunes in Quang Binh

Located in Quang Phu Commune, Bo Trach District, the Quang Phu Sand Dunes are situated around 10km northeast of Dong Hoi city center. With its natural beauty and serene landscape, this has become a must-see spot for Quang Binh tourism. The dunes opened for tourism in 2014 and have quickly transformed from a lesser-known spot to a top destination. In 2017, it was chosen as one of the venues for events during the Miss Grand International pageant.

This destination has remained relatively untouched by tourism exploitation, preserving its pristine allure. The sand dunes, constantly reshaped by the coastal winds, show ever-changing patterns and hues. Watching the sunrise and sunset at Quang Phu Sand Dunes is a poetic experience. At different times of day, the colors of the sand shift magically with the sun's movement.

At dawn, as the sun rises from the sea, the sand is pristine white and smooth. By midday, the sand turns a bright golden hue, radiating heat. As evening falls, the dunes take on a deep, tranquil tone. The sunset bathes the vast dunes in a new grayish-white coat. Among the endless stretch of fine sand in Quang Phu, resilient green bushes dot the landscape, adding life and contrast.

A Wealth of Thrilling Experiences
With such stunning scenery, Quang Phu Sand Dunes have become the perfect spot for a photo op when you visit Quang Binh tourism. Positioned along the coast, the dunes offer endless opportunities for creative photography. With a little skill in choosing your angle, you can capture expansive sand dunes alongside the vast ocean backdrop.

Beyond photography, don't miss the chance to try sandboarding and off-road driving. The dunes, about 100 meters high, are ideal for thrill-seekers. Sliding down the towering dunes and immersing yourself in nature is exhilarating. The cost of renting a sandboard is only around 30,000 VND, and you can rent it for as long as you'd like.

Sitting in the vehicle, racing down the dunes or following the sloping trails makes for a thrilling experience, especially for adventure lovers. Currently, the cost to rent an off-road vehicle is 300,000 VND for 15 minutes and 500,000 VND for 30 minutes. You can either drive yourself or let a guide take the wheel.
