Da Nang to Lăng Cô: Rent a car for pristine beaches

If Mỹ Khê beach in Da Nang makes you feel overwhelmed by the noise and crowds, look north, crossing the majestic Hải Vân pass. There, two beautiful blue gems of the Central region are hidden: Lăng Cô Bay and Thuận An Beach.

Regarded as some of the most pristine and peaceful beaches, a day trip for a picnic, swimming, and enjoying seafood at Lăng Cô is a fantastic choice. And the car rental service from Da Nang to Lăng Cô by Faifo Express is the perfect way to connect you with nature.

1. Lăng Cô, Thuận An: A feast of blue sea and seafood

Lăng Cô Bay - The charm at the foot of the pass

Honored as a member of the “World’s Most Beautiful Bays Club” (Worldbays), Lăng Cô possesses a serene beauty with a 10km stretch of smooth white sand, with clear blue sea on one side and the calm Lập An lagoon reflecting the clouds on the other. A special highlight of Lăng Cô is the seafood (especially milk oysters and lobster), which is extremely fresh and affordable as it is caught directly from Lập An lagoon.

Thuận An Beach - Where currents meet

Located further than Lăng Cô, Thuận An beach is the most famous beach of the ancient capital, Hue. It carries a touch of gentle melancholy but is incredibly clear. The beach is not steep and the waves are gentle, making it ideal for families with young children.

2. Why should you rent a private car to Lăng Cô?

Instead of riding a motorbike across the scorching Hải Vân pass, or catching a bus only to be dropped off in the middle of the highway, renting a private car is the wisest investment for a day trip:

• Avoid the Central region’s sun and wind: Depart from your Da Nang hotel at 8:00 AM, relax in leather seats with the air conditioning on, and arrive at Lăng Cô for a swim in just 45 minutes.
• Freedom to eat and drink: A trip to the coast isn’t complete without seafood and beer. With a Faifo Express driver behind the wheel, the men in your family can enjoy themselves without worrying about drink-driving laws on the way back to Da Nang.
• Seamless travel: From Lăng Cô beach to Lập An lagoon, or driving up to the top of Hải Vân pass to watch the sunset, the driver will take you anywhere without limits.
