Vung Bau Beach (Kien Giang) is located outside the Cua Can settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Phu quoc island and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Vung Bau Beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone.

User reviews
"If it weren't for the litter, this beach could easily be one of the top destinations on the island. Despite this, there are still plenty of spacious sandy areas that are enjoyable. The drive to the beach along the red dirt roads adds an element of excitement to the experience, which I found to be a pleasant surprise."
Lirah
"Upon arriving at the beach at 10am, we were pleasantly surprised to find that we had it all to ourselves. Although the roads leading to the beach were a bit bumpy, it was nothing compared to the ones in Nusa Penida. It's advisable to wear a mask and avoid wearing white clothing to avoid any inconvenience. Bike parking is free, and the beach is just a short 100-200m walk away..."
