Located just 16 kilometers from Thanh Hoa City, Sam Son Beach is one of Vietnam’s most popular seaside destinations. With its golden sands, gentle waves and lively local culture, Sam Son has become a favorite getaway for both Vietnamese families and international travelers seeking a blend of relaxation, sunshine and authentic coastal charm.
The Charm and Highlights of Sam Son Beach
Sam Son Beach
Stretching over 6 kilometers along the Gulf of Tonkin, Sam Son Beach is not just a summer destination – it’s a place where nature, history and hospitality meet. Whether you’re looking to unwind, explore, or enjoy delicious seafood, Sam Son offers something for everyone.
The story of Sam Son Beach dates back to the early 20th century when it was first developed as a seaside retreat during the French colonial period. Over the years, it has evolved into a modern resort town while still preserving its natural beauty and cultural heritage.
The beach is divided into several sections – from A to D zones – each offering soft sand, clear water and gentle slopes ideal for swimming. Early mornings here are magical: fishermen pull in their nets, locals exercise along the shore and the rising sun paints the sea with shades of gold and pink.

Beyond the main beach, visitors can explore nearby attractions such as:
- Doc Cuoc Temple, perched on a seaside cliff and dedicated to a legendary hero who protected the land.
- Trong Mai Islet, two giant rocks symbolizing eternal love, one of Thanh Hoa’s most iconic natural landmarks.
- Hon Trong Island, a perfect spot for taking panoramic photos of the coast.
Sam Son also offers many modern facilities – beachfront hotels, spas and entertainment complexes – making it suitable for both short vacations and luxury getaways.

Taste the Sea – Culinary Delights in Sam Son
No trip to Sam Son is complete without indulging in its rich seafood cuisine. The ocean’s bounty is served fresh daily at beachside restaurants or bustling local markets. Must-try dishes include:
- Steamed mantis shrimp – sweet and tender, best enjoyed with lime and chili salt.
- Grilled oysters with scallion oil, a favorite local delicacy.
- Jellyfish salad, a refreshing dish with herbs and roasted peanuts.
- Sam Son crab soup – flavorful, rich and comforting after a long swim.
In the evening, visitors can stroll along the beach, enjoy live music from seaside cafés, or join locals for a barbecue under the stars. The friendly, laid-back atmosphere of Sam Son captures the true essence of Vietnam’s coastal life.
