Lang Co - One of the World's Most Beautiful Bays & The Green Gem of Central Vietnam

Lang Co Beach is located in Lang Co Town, Phu Loc District, Thua Thien Hue Province. With a prime location, about 70km north of Hue city center and 30km south of Da Nang, Lang Co is an ideal stopover on the journey to explore Central Vietnam.

The Lang Co coastline stretches 10km with fine white sand and calm, crystal-clear blue water, surrounded by Lap An Lagoon, the Bach Ma mountain range, and Hai Van Pass. It was this magnificent natural scenery that led King Khai Dinh to exclaim that it was a "fairyland on earth".

Regarding its name, there are two popular anecdotes. One is that "Lang Co" is a mispronunciation of the fishing village "An Cu". The second is that many storks used to inhabit the area, so it was called "Lang Co" (Stork Village), which gradually evolved into Lang Co.

To get to Lang Co, you can choose from various means of transportation depending on your starting point and personal preferences.

• By plane: This is the fastest way. You can fly to Phu Bai International Airport (Hue) or Da Nang International Airport. From there, you can easily travel by taxi, bus, or private car rental to reach Lang Co.
• By car or motorbike: If you love exploring and enjoying the scenery, the Hai Van Pass route is an unmissable experience. However, if traveling by motorbike, note that motorbikes are not allowed through the Hai Van Tunnel; you must ride over the pass or use the truck transfer service through the tunnel.
• By train or bus: While convenient for traveling between major cities, you will still need to hire private transportation from the station or bus terminal to reach the beach.

Whichever means of transport you choose, the journey to Lang Co Bay will be an exciting part of your adventure, opening up breathtaking and memorable landscapes along the Central Vietnam exploration route.
