Introduction

Sầm Sơn, a hidden gem on Vietnam's northeast coast, has it all: stunning beaches, warm local hospitality, culturally rich heritage spots, and savory cuisine, all woven together in a three-day immersive journey. We'll have our toes in the sand, taste Sầm Sơn's finest seafood, and dive into the cultural journey that shines a light on Vietnam’s remarkable history.

Day 1 - Touchdown in Sầm Sơn

Start your Sầm Sơn adventure by landing at Thanh Hoa Airport, a short 30-minute drive away from our cozy beachfront hotel. Toss your suitcases aside - we're diving into the waves first thing! Sầm Sơn’s Truong Son Beach is an unspoiled tropical haven – make sure to soak in its azure waters and golden sands. Post-sunbathing, try the famous crab soup; it's as if the chefs funneled the essence of the sea itself into your bowl! Take a late afternoon walk towards the impressive Doc Cuoc Temple, which stands majestically on one leg – a one-of-a-kind sight for sure. How exactly does it defy gravity? Well, you got to see it to believe it.

Day 2 - Majestic Sights and Local Delights

On our second day, we'll experience an exquisite mix of cultural and culinary wonders. We'll first embark on a journey to Co Tien Mountain, believed to be a fairy's resting place in ancient legends. After drinking in the panoramic views, we'll visit Truong Le Market in the heart of the city, bustling with vendors selling street food, locally made souvenirs, and more. Ever tried frog meat? Give it a go at one of the stalls, you might be surprised – and in a pleasant way. The day ends with a laid-back stroll on the romantic Le Thuong Street, lined with tasty eateries. A perfect occasion to feast on some delicious, fresh seafood as the sun sets.

Day 3 – The farewell day

We'll make the most of our last day with a rejuvenating morning dip at Truong Son Beach. Don't miss out on capturing the breathtaking sunrise either. Perhaps a quick round of seafood-for-breakfast may tempt you for one last gastronomic adventure in Sầm Sơn? After checking out, we'll visit the Sam Son Fishing Village for a peek into the lives of local fishermen. A quick stop at the iconic Dragon Eye Pond is also on the cards, surrounded by lush greenery and tranquil serenity, it's a soothing end to the trip. Remember, goodbyes are tough but the vivid memories of Sầm Sơn will stay with you forever!
