Cua Lo Beach

For some beach time this summer, I traveled with some friends for an extended weekend at the beginning of May to the port city of Vinh and spent afternoons at Cua Lo beach. This was one of the most accessible beaches I'd seen in Vietnam, and with beautiful weather at the start of summer, the wide, shallow waters were teeming with children building mud-sand castles, pick-up soccer matches, a fleet of kites, and huts serving up piles of steaming fresh seafood and banh da crackers.
