Cua Dai Beach is located only about 5 kilometers away from Hoi An Ancient Town. It is a quiet and clean beach, perfect for those seeking relaxation surrounded by nature. This beach is a popular destination for both Vietnamese and foreign tourists who come to unwind by the sea.

In the past, Cua Dai Beach was an important port for maritime trade for the city of Hoi An. Today, it has been developed into a leisure and relaxation spot, while successfully maintaining its tranquility and local atmosphere. Tourists can stroll along the long stretch of beach or rent a beach chair to lie down and listen to the sound of the waves throughout the day.

In addition, there are many local seafood restaurants lining the beach, serving fresh seafood straight from the fishing boats, such as grilled squid, BBQ prawns, and baked clams with butter, all of which are popular among visitors. Travelers can enjoy dining while admiring the beautiful sea view.

In the early morning, Cua Dai Beach is one of the most beautiful spots to watch the sunrise in Central Vietnam. The golden light reflecting on the water, coupled with the gentle sound of the waves, creates a romantic atmosphere, perfect for photography and morning relaxation.

Although some parts of the beach have been affected by coastal erosion recently, the local government has been undertaking efforts to restore the coastline and add new facilities to accommodate tourists. This ensures that Cua Dai Beach remains one of the most beautiful and peaceful tourist destinations in Hoi An.
