2025-03-18 14:29:38
Starting April 30, Cac Ba Beach, located in Green Island Central Bay City, will officially welcome visitors, unveiling a new seaside paradise where guests can enjoy crystal-clear waters, fine sand, golden sunlight, and vibrant entertainment all year round.

If you're looking for a destination that combines the untouched beauty of an island beach with the lively atmosphere of a central bay area featuring world-class dining and entertainment experiences, then Cac Ba Beach – the newest addition to Cat Ba – is the perfect choice.

A brand-new destination in Cat Ba is set to debut this April 30.

Opening just in time for the April 30 – May 1 holiday, Cac Ba Beach promises a completely unique seaside experience. The beach will be open daily from early morning until 5:30 PM.

Cac Ba Beach – A symphony of nature and culture 

Stretching nearly 1 km with a gently sloping shoreline, Cac Ba Beach offers a spacious swimming area, ensuring a relaxing experience without overcrowding, even during peak seasons. Nestled deep within the bay, it enjoys calmer waters than many other beaches in northern Vietnam, allowing visitors to fully immerse themselves in its clear, refreshing waves. Unlike the emerald waters of the southern coast, the sea here is a deep, rich blue, reflecting the sky and the towering limestone cliffs surrounding it. The shoreline is lined with soft, pristine sand, free from natural debris, maintaining its untouched beauty.

One of the unique features that make Cac Ba Beach truly one of a kind is the presence of thousands of towering coconut trees, reaching heights of 30–40 meters. This rare sight in northern beaches creates a stunning tropical ambiance reminiscent of the world’s most famous island paradises.

With its one-of-a-kind “coconut forest,” Cat Ba is embracing a green tourism development model. (Concept image).

The presence of these soaring coconut trees is more than just a picturesque addition to the landscape; it represents a long-term vision for sustainable tourism in Cac Ba. These trees play a crucial role in improving the local microclimate, providing natural shade, reducing temperatures, preventing coastal erosion, and protecting the beach ecosystem. Cac Ba is striving toward a green tourism model, and Cac Ba Beach, with its one-of-a-kind "coconut forest," is a key part of this initiative.

This is also one of the few beaches in Cac Ba with a prime location in the heart of the bay, allowing visitors easy access to high-end accommodations while enjoying a variety of activities, both day and night, without the need for extensive travel.

More than just a new name on the tourism map, Cac Ba Beach carries cultural and historical significance linked to the legend of the resilient women of the island. The name “Cac Ba” is derived from a long-standing local legend about the women of the sea – those who steadfastly supported their communities while the men ventured out to battle and fish. They managed logistics, cared for the wounded, maintained village life, and played a vital role in defending their homeland.

This name not only serves as a historical reminder but also symbolizes the harmony between nature and humanity, the soft beauty of the sea and the enduring strength of the women who shaped this land.

A unique way to experience Cat Ba

A beach getaway in Cat Ba is not just about lounging on soft sand, it’s a journey of reconnecting with nature and savoring every moment of island life. In the morning, take a stroll along the shore, breathing in the fresh, salty air. As the sun climbs higher, there’s nothing more refreshing than diving into the cool, blue waters, letting the waves wash away the summer heat. And when the sun sets, the entire beach glows in shades of orange and gold, reflecting on the still waters—an ideal stop for a sunset tour in Cat Ba.

A thriving nightlife scene with exciting new attractions.

Unlike many other beaches that are lively only during the day, Cac Ba Beach is set to become the heart of Cat Ba’s nighttime tourism and entertainment ecosystem. Starting May 15, visitors to Cac Ba Beach will have the chance to experience Symphony of the Green Island – one of Vietnam’s most spectacular jetski, flyboard, laser light, and fireworks shows.

With an investment of nearly 200 billion VND, this high-adrenaline marine performance will feature some of the world’s top athletes and introduce a groundbreaking fireworks display in Vietnam. Each evening at Cac Ba Beach will be transformed into an elite artistic spectacle, elevating the island’s nightlife scene.

The green-themed night market and exclusive culinary experiences await this summer.

Adding to the experience is the VUI-Fest Night Market, an eco-friendly marketplace featuring hundreds of stalls built entirely from sustainable materials, where visitors can indulge in the flavors of Hai Phong and surrounding regions, enjoy vibrant street performances, and immerse themselves in local culture. For a prime view of the fireworks show, visitors can head to Sun Bavaria Cat Ba Gastro Pub, which offers all-day dining paired with authentic German craft beer, Sun KraftBeer. Meanwhile, the expansive, lush sands of Cac Ba Beach, stretching nearly 1 km, will provide the perfect daytime retreat for those looking to relax in nature’s embrace.

This April 30 holiday, Cac Ba Beach is undoubtedly a destination worth exploring. It’s not just a place to swim – it’s a gateway to experiencing the new rhythm of Cat Ba, where nature and people come together to create unforgettable moments unlike anywhere else in Vietnam.
