With its wild and romantic beauty, Ong Lang is likened to a sleeping princess on the west coast of Phu Quoc island, located in the middle of Duong Dong and Cua Can towns. This place is a harmonious picture of the natural scenery, colored by the green rows of trees along the coast, the gentle golden sand beach, the rare turquoise blue sea water, and so on. The coast stretches not continuously but is interrupted by strangely shaped rocks interspersed with a sandy shore, adorned with silver waves lapping and colorful patches of moss and coral.
Coming to a place with breathtaking beauty like Ong Lang Beach, you certainly cannot miss the opportunity to immerse yourself in the blue water or sunbathe on the soft sand. There is nothing more wonderful than the feeling of relaxing in a quiet, peaceful space full of shimmering sunlight, temporarily forgetting all the troubles of daily work and life. This beach is also the perfect spot to create impressive check-in photos - you can feel free to wear colorful bikinis or flowy maxi dresses, better to go in the afternoon or morning for the best lighting.

Another activity that you will regret if you miss is watching the super beautiful sunset at Ong Lang, especially in the rocky area, which becomes strangely attractive when the sun goes down. Surrounded by majestic nature with mountains, and green trees, in front of a vast and calm sea, you will find a sunset sky with romantic pink and orange tones as the perfect highlight of the day. You can walk with your loved one on the long sandy beach, enjoy this sweet scene, listen to the murmuring waves and feel the breeze carrying the smell of salty sea caressing your skin.
3 - Interesting water activities at Ong Lang beach
If you are looking for more interesting things to do such as fishing, snorlkeling and scuba diving in Phu Quoc, this beach will be a top spot to visit. Most Phu Quoc island tours come with these services, otherwise, you can get on a boat and go with the fishermen to the sea, or contact the hotels, and resorts nearby. Fishing requires a certain amount of patience and skill, but with their dedicated guidance, you will indeed easily catch something like fish and squid. Snorkeling is quite simple, some hotels, restaurants, or eateries have rental equipment for you to use, but remember to go not too far from the shore and with a guide for safety.

Meanwhile, scuba diving or walking on the seabed is more advanced, so only professional organizations provide it, and usually included in a Phu Quoc Island tour, not separately. When participating in these activities, you will be delighted to see the beautiful coral reefs blooming brilliantly on the ocean floor, looking like a fairy world. However, these are all vulnerable plants, so you must avoid stepping on them, especially do not break corals and bring them home as souvenirs.
Finally, kayaking is also on the must-try list when you come to Ong Lang beach, especially suitable for groups of 4 or more. Standing on the shore watching the sea from afar is interesting, but you will be more impressed by the feeling of floating on the water and exploring on your own. There are many kayak rentals right on the shore, and hotels or restaurants also offer this service. You can take the boat to the Cuu Van section to admire the full stunning view of the beach, but you should not go too far because the waves will be bigger with sudden changes, and high tide in the afternoon.
4 - Enjoy fresh specialties by Ong Lang beach
Besides the above activities, this charming beach also has specialties of fresh and attractive seafood. A BBQ barbecue party right on the white sand and beautiful clear water will be a great choice to make your vacation more enjoyable.
