Ho Coc beach
A wide, quiet stretch of the southern Vietnamese coast, backed by casuarina pines. The waves come in long and steady, and even on weekends the beach stays calm. Sunrises are the reward for early risers.
Ho Coc is one of the more restful corners of southern Vietnam. Here is how we would spend a few days from Ven Ven Hotel.

A wide, quiet stretch of the southern Vietnamese coast, backed by casuarina pines. The waves come in long and steady, and even on weekends the beach stays calm. Sunrises are the reward for early risers.
Small kitchens along the coast serve grilled fish, prawns, clams and simple rice dishes. Fresh seafood at plastic tables under the trees. Ask us at reception for the ones we go to.
Binh Chau - Phuoc Buu forest reserve sits right behind Ho Coc, with quiet trails, coastal woodland and the well-known hot springs a little further along.
A short drive along the coast reaches Ho Tram and the wider Xuyen Moc district. Easy to base yourself at Ven Ven for a few days and explore the coast by car or scooter.
Ho Coc is part of Ba Ria - Vung Tau province, one of the calmer stretches of southern Vietnam. A good jumping-off point for a wider trip.
Ho Coc is a soft place to wake up. Book a room and let the beach, forest and coffee be a short walk away.
