There are many explanations for the name Doc Let. Many visitors who hear this name for the first time cannot help but be curious about its reason and story. To visit Doc Let, you are required to cross large, high sand slopes to reach the beach. Due to the terrain with those high sand dunes, every time you move, it is as if there is a natural sand wall blocking you, slowing you down. Every step you take, every time the sand sinks deep, it seems to hold your footsteps and make it difficult to take a step. Every time I walk through Doc Let, I feel like I just want to "drag" away because I'm so tired. Although it's hard, you will be rewarded when you cross the sandy slope and reach the beach, where the wind blows gently as if waking up after a sweltering summer sleep. The waves waved to welcome the "miracle" of overcoming the high and steep sand dunes. Currently, most of the natural sand slopes are gradually being flattened to facilitate travel and transportation to serve the expansion of tourism services. You can even see locals riding motorbikes along the beach, because the sand is flat and very rough. Although there are many different ways to explain the name Doc Let, they all originate from the topography and soil properties of these places.

Of course you cannot bathe on the beach this season because the water is very cold.

Doc Let is still quite pristine, with dense green trees surrounding the coast, clear blue sea water like turquoise, a blue color that northern beaches rarely have.

Doc Let Beach is very quiet because it is shielded by a series of surrounding hills, making the sea surface very peaceful and rarely having strong winds. Most of the hills still retain lush green primary forests, creating a feeling of closeness to nature. Doc Let beach stretches about 8 km. Unlike other beaches, Doc Let seabed gradually slopes away from the shore, the water level is not high, up to 100 m away from the shore but the water level is only about chest level. Usually the farther you go on beaches, the deeper the water becomes, but because they are filled with sand, you can still see the "bottom" as you go. Another point, if you bring small children, you can freely let them play on the shallow beach, the reason it is called shallow beach is because the water level is very low, children and people who cannot swim can bathe without worrying about drowning. . The white sand is as smooth as a young woman's skin, gently patted by white ripples. The waves are not too fierce, the water is clear blue but very salty, just take a sip and you'll know right away. The vast, green casuarina forest whispers in the wind as if creating a natural wall of green trees, creating a cool feeling. After swimming, wearing sunglasses and walking barefoot under the casuarina trees, each step placed on the smooth sand brings a gentle feeling as if each acupuncture point is being massaged under the soles of the feet. As far as the eye can see, there is a blue color, catching every ray of sunlight shining through the shady tree canopy, giving you an indescribable feeling of comfort. A beautiful beach with pure white sand, clear blue water, clearly visible white sand grains at the bottom. This place will be an ideal place to help you leave stress and sadness behind and open your soul to receive a wonderful vacation with Doc Let. If you want to see the name "Doc Let" directly, go to the sand dunes to try the feeling of sandboarding from the top down. Believe that this feeling only comes when you go to the sand dunes. My body was covered in sand, sand in my ears, sand in my hair, and even sand in my mouth because of sandboarding. The space here gives you a feeling of freedom and freedom more than ever, basking in the golden sunlight, immersing yourself in the blue sea, your eyes seem to be immersed in a dreamy scene, your mind is full of inspiration, the space Airy, close to nature, all senses are fully open to feel every moment.
