Vung Tau Vietnam

Hi

Vung Tau is a seaside resort approximately 125 kms. from Saigon/Ho chi Minh City.

I visited earlier this year, a very poplar week end escape although quiet in the week.

Travelled over by hydrofoil ferry, journey took about 90 minutes, I believe that shortly after my visit that service was suspended, due to a hydrofoil ferry encountering engine problems/fire and the captain managed to ditch the boat very near land, fortunately nobody died nor any injury, must have been very scary though.

About to board for the journey over







I mostly stood on a small outside deck, watching and taking a few photos












Stayed at a pleasant hotel in the " Back Beach area ", a pleasant view from the balcony








Looking out from a nearby restaurant








The hotel was " The Green Hotel ", nice room and pleasant service at US $ 37 a night, including a breakfast buffet





















Beach just across the road
