    Nice beach away from tourists
    Came back here after many years, so many things changed. Beautiful beach was washed away by the waves. So sad. But the government has been trying so hard to revive it. Still beautiful beach, perfect temperature for swimming or just strolling around and chill out at 1 of the bars along the beach.

    Peaceful and beautiful
    Beautiful beach away from the hustle and bustle where you can relax for the day! Top tip, visit the little bar / restaurants for a sun lounger for £1.50 for the day which is then free if you eat. The food is lovely!

    Wonderful holidays in Cua Dai
    After being destroyed by the typhoon, the beach was rebuilt and sea defences were installed. Beautiful sandy beach with palm trees, clear water, an ideal place for swimming and relaxation. Beach loungers are free with a drink order. The restaurants serve great seafood at decent prices. We stayed at the wonderful River Beach Hotel and had a great time. Near the hotel there is a small family restaurant Blue Wave, which serves excellent Vietnamese and Western dishes and the best banh mi.

    Nice beach, though being restored
    This is a very nice stretch of beach, from in front of Hoi An Beach Resort and then running north. Very busy in the afternoon with events (girls’ soccer match) and in the early morning (locals exercising), with a great view of Da Nang and the Cham islands. Note that erosion had affected the width of the beach so it is being restored (so you may see some barges doing a bit of work). You can enjoy a drink in various spots, with seats and tables provided by local vendors.

    Cua Dai Beach
    Cua Dai Beach is definitely the quiet half of the Da Nang/Hoi An beach coastline. The beach is much less crowded and it is relatively clean. Cua Dai does not have the popping excitement of My Khe Beach, but it is a lot more relaxing. There are not much public facilities on the beach.

Beautiful beach I would say. We was introduced with a tour but found out it would be fine to chill here. Try not to bring a plastic bags and make sure you ask the price before buying anything even a coconut.

After winter storms, there is little left of this once gorgeous beach. Local businesses have suffered dramatically. Lots of sea defences have been constructed, but needs a major civil engineering project to restore the beachfront. Approximately 1 mile of beach is affected. No indication when things will return to normal.

Really peaceful beach, not nearly as busy as My Khe. If you’re looking to relax the resorts here are great. Post covid and monsoons there is a lot of construction, but we didn’t find it very noisy. It’s only a 10 minute cab to Hoi An. We’ll be back.

A lot of old reviews mention the typhoon from years back that took out some of the beach. That did happen, but many of the businesses have built the beach back. If you want a lot of nice sand, go to one of those. Man’s restaurant is a nice place to rent a chair with the price of a drink or two.

Sad to see such a beautiful beach eroded away, but that's nature. And looking at the powerful waves I dont think the sand bags will be of much use. I do feel sorry for the local businesses that rely on the tourists. Picture taken 28th january 2020

Give this beach a miss for a while. It suffered from extreme erosion some time ago. At the moment it looks like a mine site with dredges pumping sand back up. I am sure it will b beautiful once again when finished.
