Cua Dai Beach is located about 3km to the east of the center of Hoi An Town. It has long been known as the once most crowded commercial port of the southern half of the country in trading with the outside world, under the then name of Faifo.

Cua Dai Beach is over 3km in length and up to 300m in width. It boasts fine white sand, clear and blue water, moderate slopes and small waves, which make it ideal for recreational activities like swimming and other sea sports.

After visiting the relics in the old town, visitors can go to Cua Dai Beach to enjoy sea food specialties in an ideal environment of immense sky and sunshine.

In the shady palm-lined road bordering the beach stand some large seaside resorts such as Hoi An Beach Resort or Victoria Resort, where lodgings built in Vietnamese traditional style are available. On summer holidays, the famous beach of Cua Dai cools off those heading to Hoi An.
