Bai Chay Beach
Bai Chay is Ha Long City's in-town beach, a man-made stretch of sand facing the bay that's convenient rather than spectacular — it exists mainly to give the tourist strip a beach to anchor around, not as a natural highlight. Most visitors passing through use it for a quick walk or sunset view rather than serious swimming.
The real draw of Ha Long is out on the water among the limestone karsts, so treat this beach as a convenient stroll near your hotel rather than a destination in its own right.
