Bãi Tắm La Gi
Bãi Tắm La Gi is an easygoing public swimming beach on the coast of La Gi, in the commune of Tân Hải (now part of Lâm Đồng province), roughly 10 km northeast of the old town centre. Locals also call it Bãi tắm Tân Hải or Bãi Dinh. Rated 3.9/5 from hundreds of reviews and almost never crowded compared with the big resorts of Mũi Né, it suits travellers who want an unhurried seaside day: clear greenish water, pale sand, wind-touched casuarina trees, and a bay cradled by low headlands. What makes it appealing is its unpolished, local character. This is a beach that belongs to a fishing commune rather than a resort strip, so you come for the simple pleasures—swimming, sunrises over the water, beach games and a long seafood lunch—rather than for pools and buffets. The surf here is a touch livelier than at some other La Gi beaches, which gives it a more energetic feel for anyone who enjoys waves. Pair the beach with La Gi's wider draws: a morning at the fishing port, the curvy-road trip along the coast, and fresh grilled seafood bought straight from boats. It makes a worthwhile stop on a slow two-day escape from Ho Chi Minh City, which is about a three-hour drive away.
