Lang Co Beach – Hue Travel Guide Detailed From A – Z

Lang Co Beach or Lang Co Bay is a beach with beautiful scenery with smooth white sand stretching along with clear sea water creating a charming and poetic scene.

In 2009, Lang Co Bay was rated as one of the most beautiful bays in the world by Worldbays. It was also known as a fairyland in the heart of the central region.

Therefore, this is a familiar destination for young people when traveling to Da Nang – Hue. If you want to go to Lang Co beach without any experience, don’t worry too much.

Today I will have a detailed self-sufficient Lang Co travel guide for you to refer to and plan your upcoming trip.

Where is Lang Co Beach?

Nestled between two large passes, Hai Van Pass and Phu Gia Pass. Lang Co beach belongs to Lang Co town, Phu Loc district, Thua Thien Hue province. (See map of Lang Co bay )

It is nearly 30km from Da Nang city to the north and about 70km from Hue city center to the south.

Lang Co sea area was formerly a small fishing village, because the population is sparse, so the storks here live a lot, so it is also known as Co Village. After some time, this place was renamed Lang Co

When approaching the foot of Hai Van pass, you will have a panoramic view of Lang Co Bay with a white sand dune emerging running in a beautiful arc.

Another reason why Lang Co always welcomes so many tourists is because Lang Co Beach is located right on the way to the heritage sites of the central region from Phong Nha Cave, Hue Ancient Capital, Hoi An Ancient Town and even My Son Sanctuary. .

When is the best time to visit Lang Co Beach?

Summer will be the most ideal Lang Co Bay tourist season for all visitors. Imagine if on a hot summer day with the sweltering weather of the central region, you can relax on the most beautiful bay in the world and immerse yourself in the cool blue sea. .

In August to November, the weather in Hue is very bad, with prolonged rain and storms, so it will not be suitable for a trip to the beach. Moreover, in this season, the sea is rough, so the sea water is no longer beautiful when you come.

From December to the end of February, the weather in Hue is a bit cold, so it is only suitable for sightseeing rather than swimming at this time.

 

How to get to Lang Co Bay?

Lang Co Beach can be said to be located between two central tourist centers, Hue and Da Nang, so when you visit these two places, you can combine visiting Lang Co Bay .

Therefore, I will guide you how to move from Da Nang and Hue to Lang Co Bay, and how to move to Da Nang and Hue, you can refer to the self-sufficient Da Nang travel experience and guide. Travel to Hue to learn more.

You can travel by the following means:

+ Private car

If you are not healthy or do not have good driving skills, I recommend that you choose the next vehicle that is a private car.

You can rent a self-drive car if you have a license or you can take a taxi/grab to go to Lang Co beach. For this vehicle, the price is a bit expensive and the time is also somewhat limited than a motorbike, but it is safe.

Lang Co Beach is the most impressive highlight when traveling to Lang Co Bay in Hue . If Da Nang has My Khe beach, Hoi An has An Bang beach, then Hue has Lang Co beach that satisfies many tourists by its charming beauty.

The beach here is quite clean, with clear blue sea water and long fine white sand, on summer days swimming here is a wonderful experience.

To enjoy these fresh seafood dishes, you can visit small roadside restaurants or go to coastal seafood restaurants to enjoy, but in my opinion, the prices at these restaurants are relatively high.

If you go to the beach, you should prepare bathing suits, jackets, hats and sunscreen.

+ Service prices here are not strictly managed like in Da Nang, so before choosing any service you need to consult the price first, to avoid expensive price cuts.

+ If going from Da Nang, you should choose to take the pass by motorbike, which will be more suitable for sightseeing instead of going through the tunnel, but you need to be very careful when going through dangerous winding sections.

+ In the evening in Lang Co, there are not too many fun activities because it is far from the center, so I still recommend going back during the day.

 

Lang Co Hue tour

Currently, there are many units that organize tours to Lang Co to visit, among them you can refer to the 1-day Hue tour from Da Nang that I have reviewed before.

This tour combines Lang Co tour and other famous attractions in Hue such as Khai Dinh Tomb, Thien Mu Pagoda, Hue Citadel.

However, the disadvantage of the tour is that you don’t stay in Lang Co for a long time, you can’t visit Hai Van Pass (passing the tunnel). If you are interested, you can book a tour to Lang Co without worrying about how to move and where to eat, there will be a car to pick you up at the hotel and take care of your meal at the restaurant.
