History of Xuan Thieu Beach
On 8th March 1965, the first US combat troops landed on Vietnam at Xuan Thieu Beach (known as the Red Beach by the Americans). This is a turning point in the Vietnam War (1955-1975).
Later, Xuan Thieu Beach was part of the Red Beach Base Area managed by the former US Navy, Marines and Army, and the Army of Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam). Today, it belongs to the People’s Army of Vietnam.
Best Time to Visit Xuan Thieu Beach
The best time to visit Xuan Thieu Beach in the year is the dry season, from February to the end of August. In this period, the weather is beautiful, with lots of sun and no rain. For that reason, it’s a perfect time to sightsee, sunbathe, go swimming, take pictures, and play water sports.
The worst time of the year to visit Xuan Thieu Beach is the rainy season, from September to January. The weather in these months is mostly rainy and cloudy, so it’s not really great to head over to the beach. Between October and December/January, typhoons may hit the area, causing very strong winds and waves as well as heavy rains and floods.
In December and January, generally it often rains. The heaviest rain will be in late December and early January (around Christmas, New year holidays). In late January, visitors can expect dry or sunny days to visit Xuan Thieu Beach. Check the weather forecast to choose the best days or hours!
