Therefore, if you are curious, why not join NVK to explore the mentioned destination by reading the following article.
Dau Beach often impresses tourists with its "elegant" beauty, hidden behind the glitz of the city. Amidst the bustling crowd, this place appears strangely beautiful, attracting visitors.
Dau Beach, formerly known as Vung May Beach, is one of the most peaceful corners of the sea, located to the west of Big Mountain, not too far from the center of Vung Tau city. In fact, no one knows exactly when the name "Vung May" was given, but according to local stories and some records, this place was once surrounded by a thick layer of forest clouds.
Thanks to that, a scene that is both unreal and real has emerged along with the poetic atmosphere that always envelops this place, hence the name Vung May was born. Unlike Front Beach and Back Beach, this place is quite sheltered from the wind, with many cliffs and rocky outcrops jutting out into the sea at both ends of the beach.
Vung May stands out with the pristine beauty of its tranquil natural landscape, as this area has not been heavily exploited for tourism like other destinations. However, thanks to this very factor, this place has donned a "dress" that no other beach has.
