An Bang beach in Hoi An has been ranked 42nd in the World's 50 Best Beaches by CNN Travel in 2025.
Located 3km east of the town of Hoi An, An Bang beach continues to be a favorite among both locals and visitors for its gentle waves and soft white sands. On hot summer days, while other beaches may have sand that becomes too hot to even step on, An Bang typically remains pleasantly walkable, inviting those in search of relaxation to enjoy its beauty.
Relatively pristine and much less crowded than the nearby Cua Dai beach, An Bang is an ideal spot for travelers in Hoi An who prefer a more private and tranquil atmosphere. Recently, the beach has seen an increase in popularity among expat tourists, which has led to the development of Western-managed bars and restaurants along the shore. These establishments offer great opportunities for socializing, but for those looking for solitude, a simple stroll away from the main beach area can create a sense of seclusion and peace.
