Thuan An Beach
Will do in a pinch
What we say: 
About 30km from Hue is the nearest beach -- Thuan An. It's a pleasant patch of sand on the China Sea, and though its hardly world class, it'll do in a pinch. Services along the beach are ridiculously undeveloped -- really just a scattering of shacks in various stages of falling apart. But that's part of the charm. You'll pay 10,000VND to rent a beach umbrella and chairs for the day, 5,000VND to park a motorbike. There's no accommodation available anywhere near the beach -- the closest place to stay is in Hue. However, a five-star luxury resort is underway on the beach.

30km from HueHow to get there: To get here, start off from Vy Da Ward on the south bank of the Huong River and go north on Pham Van Dong Road. When the road tees, take a right. The road eventually crosses an inlet over a bridge to Thuan An island. Drive through town, bear right, and you'll see signs for the beach on your left.
