Nghinh Phong Cape
This cape has become a local favorite getaway on weekends. Located in the southern part of Vung Tau at 1 Ha Long Street, it sits conveniently between Vong Nguyet Beach and Dua Beach. Mui Nghinh Phong is approximately 950 meters from Vung Tau’s Front Beach, making scooter rides the perfect way to explore the area.

Mui Nghinh Phong translates to "the cape embracing breezes," while the nearby Cong Troi means "a gate to the sky." The names reflect the signature sea breeze characteristic of the area. Visitors are treated to stunning views of the sky, the sea, Hon Ba Island, and the iconic Christ statue. A long wall in vibrant and chaotic colors provides a perfect backdrop for photography. Alongside Linh Quy Phap An in Da Lat, Anh Giang in Cao Bang, O Quy Ho in Sapa, and Quan Ba in Ha Giang, Mui Nghinh Phong ranks among Vietnam's premier “gates to the sky.”

Tourists are encouraged to visit during weekdays to enjoy a less crowded environment, which is more conducive for photography. A good camera, a selfie stick, and a light jacket for windy days are recommended for a comfortable experience. Stylish ripped jeans or bohemian white dresses add unique touches to the photographs, while high heels may not be the most practical choice.
Mui Nghinh Phong and Cong Troi are perfect hideaways for those who appreciate romantic views and evocative photographs, particularly couples who wish to capture special wedding moments.
