An Bang Beach

The centre of gravity for Hoi An's long-stay foreign community. A wide public beach lined with easygoing bar-restaurants, strong flat-white coffee culture, yoga, and a steady social scene of remote workers and families. You get sea air and a village feel while the Ancient Town stays a flat 10-minute cycle away. Trade-offs: it can feel seasonal (quiet in the winter rains), and the best beachfront houses go quickly through word of mouth. Ideal for people who want community and the beach without the tourist crush of the old town.
