Who knew Hoi An had such nice beaches? Today it was a beautiful 25 degrees, so we decided to find out a way to the water. We had our choice of beaches, there are 2 within a short drive/ride of where we are staying. We chose An Bang Beach. The Grab ride we got dropped us of at a central point and we started out for a walk down the beach, there were already tons of people there - other tourists and people selling stuff. Every 10 feet we were approached by someone wanting us to choose their chairs to rest on!
We walked down the beach for a bit, before heading back to all the comfy looking chairs. We chose three together in the shade and spread out our stuff. We built sandcastles, read our books, and even took little naps! It was very relaxing. At some point, Alex was even turned into a sand-mermaid...
After all of our fun, we were hot. So, we decided to go for a swim in the water. It was cold, and wavy, but after a few minutes we were having too much fun to care! We jumped over the waves (well, tried to) and body-surfed on the sand-bar. Once we were out and dried off, we ordered some lunch and got back to relaxing. :) We enjoyed some fries, cold drinks and spring rolls - a perfect beach snack!
A few hours later, we packed up and headed back our hotel. Now, we're getting ready to go our into the town and see a bamboo circus show! it is called the Lune show. Unlike the last show, it is in a small bamboo theatre with a small cast. Nonetheless, we are definitely looking forward to it! :)
Sending sun and warmth your way! 🌞💛
Nothing like a relaxing day on the beach after your trail of adventures in Vietnam! Alex.... you make a great sand mermaid!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a love beach, thanks for sharing the sunshine. We have been missing it here lately. Body surfing and swimming on a hot day sounds like fun, even if the water was a little chilly.
