Overview
Lang Co is a beach town on a narrow strip of land between the sea and a lagoon at the foot of Hai Van Pass. The beach is long, quiet and lined with seafood restaurants, and it is popular as a stop on the road between Hue and Da Nang.
Seas are calmest from April to August. Autumn and winter bring rough water and strong waves. The beach is about an hour from Da Nang and a little over an hour from Hue, so it also works as a day trip.
Highlights
- A long, uncrowded beach
- Seafood by the lagoon
- Views of Hai Van Pass
- A stop on the Hue to Da Nang road
