Where there are wonderful check-in photos

The Quang Phu Sand Dunes are a perfect location for capturing unique and stunning photos.

You can capture many memorable moments in both photos and videos. Every morning, the sandy sea is covered in shimmering dew, which looks magical in the sunlight. In the late afternoon, the colorful yellow of the flying sand dunes blends with the sunset, creating a brilliant space that attracts photographers and artists to work.

When is the best time to visit Quang Phu Sand Dunes?

Most of the central coastal provinces experience scorching hot summers, with average temperatures ranging from 30 degrees Celsius. Therefore, it is important to choose the right time to visit and experience the fun of sand dunes.

The best time to visit is either early in the morning or late in the evening, when the sunlight is not too harsh on the land of "white sand and wind". In particular, you can enjoy watching the sun gradually emerge from the sea in the early morning or peek behind the sand dunes at sunset. The dazzling light of the sun, combined with the contrast between the two sides of the sand dunes, creates a wonderful scene.

It is important to limit your visit to the hours from 11 to 14 o'clock every day, as this is when the sand dunes are the hottest. Sand is a good absorber of light and can burn you when the sun is high. Traveling outdoors during this time can cause colds and fever, which can negatively affect your health.

The best time to visit is during the summer when there is no rain, and the climate is pleasant, making it very convenient for sandboarding. Don't forget to bring a jacket or sunscreen when the sun is high.
