Cua Lo, located 20 km from Vinh in Nghe
An province, was formed in 1994. Cua Lo Beach is 7 km long and joins
Nghi Huong to Nghi Hai; it is one of the nicest beaches in North
Vietnam with its white sand and clear blue water. Not far from the
beach are three islands: Hon Ngu, Hong Chu, and Hon Mat.
Once
in Cua Lo, tourists can visit the islands by boat, climb the mountains,
dive, and visit historical and literary sites, such as the temple in
honor of Nguyen Xi in Nghi Hop commune, the Trung Kien Pagoda in Nghi
Thiet commune, and the Hoang Van family altar in Cua Lo.
