You can come to Lang Co at any time of the year and experience its unique beauty. Summer is a paradise to avoid the scorching heat of Laos wind. While the weather in Central Vietnam is as hot as a pan, the temperature at Lang Co beach ranges only from 25-27°C. In late autumn, Lang Co beach wears a thin voile coat woven from mist. At that time, I felt like I dared not breathe too hard to avoid ruining that beautiful coat. Additionally, if you are a fan of romance and ancient things, you will see thousands of white storks coming back to roost in the evening, creating a picture like an ancient ink painting.

The people of Lang Co are simple and sincere fishermen. We wandered around the long coastline, longing for a sip of water, but we didn’t know where to find it or whom to ask. Then, a fisherman weaving his fishing net on the shore approached us and said, “Are you thirsty? Come here and have a cup of tea.” The cup of tea was as sweet as the tone of his voice. Therefore, don’t hesitate to ask any questions when you come here.
