Though labelled "Best", we must caution you that far
from beaches in the South, though in the North does not offer much blue
water and diverse range of water-based activities. The coastal area in
the North may not live up to your expectation if you were once to Nha
Trang or My Khe beach. However, if you really crave for some salted
water and open air, they will do the job.
1. Bai Chay Beach (Quang Ninh)
Bai
Chay Beach is located in Quang Ninh Province, around 100km to the
Northeast of Hanoi. The most interesting part is the beach is actually
artificial, which is 500m long and 1000m wide. The beach is surrounded
by a range of hill, covered with a thin forest of pine tree. Near the
area is a number of hotels and resort with different type of
architecture.
Bai Chay is crowed all the time during summer due
to its near distance from the capital city and several Northern
Province. Visitors coming there may have chance to taste the most fresh
sea-foods in luxury restaurants, visit international entertaining parks
or take part in exciting services like water scooters wave surfing.
One
small tip, if you want a more deserted beach area, is to book a Halong
Bay cruise tour to see Titop island - the water is much calmer and much
less polluted. Another ideal option is to go 1 hour further to Van Don
beach, a hidden gem of Halong Bay caves and bay complex that not many
have discovered.
2. Tuan Chau Beach (Ha Long)
Tuan
Chau Sea lies on Tuan Chau Island, overlooking Ha Long Bay – one of 7
new natural wonders of the world is undoubtedly an indispensable
destination. The beach here can serve a large scale of swimmer with its
coast expanding more than 2km.
Along the beach are a diverse
chain of high-stars hotels, luxury restaurants; not to mention a complex
of dolphin, seal and sea-lions performance with 3000 seats stage under

centers in the Southeast Asia.
