Co To tourism is a favorite destination for young people, it is no coincidence that Co To is favored by many people with the name ‘northern marine tourism paradise’. Co To Island captivates visitors with pristine beaches with white sand and clear blue water.
1. Take the car to Co To
We took the bus with Xuan Truong bed at the Foreign Language University and went to Cai Rong port. The car departs at 13:20.
- Reference ticket price: 150,000 VND
- Garage address: 33 Le Trong Tan, Ha Dong, Hanoi
- Phone: 0962.635.888
You should call to contact the garage in advance so that the garage can arrange your seat!
If you are not near the University of Foreign Languages, you can also catch bus trips to Quang Ninh at bus stations such as My Dinh bus station or Luong Yen bus station. Prices will range from 100,000 to 150,000 VND / person.
In addition, the door-to-door Limousine service is also very popular. Car fare will range from 200,000 – 240,000 VND / person.
After we took the car to Cai Rong port, we continued to buy tickets to the high-speed train to go to Co To island for 400,000 VND / person. In general, the round trip ticket price of 400,000 VND is quite expensive compared to a wooden train, but it is very fast and luxurious. If you want to save more can also go by a wooden train.

2. Reservations in Co To self-sufficient tour
Because we follow the self-sufficient Co To tour , we book a motel to save money. Specifically, booking a double room right next to Hong Van beach is Huy Tung’s guest house. The price for a room is 300,000 VND. If you go on weekends, the room rate will be 400,000 – 500,000 VND. The price of the room is cheap but the owner is friendly and easy to approach.
Especially, this hostel is close to the sea, so moving to the beach for a bath or a short scene is also very convenient.

3. Eat and drink in Co To tour self-sufficient
Coming to Co To, of course, you can not ignore the super delicious seafood in this place. However, we choose to eat out and not at the accommodation to save money. Because this is a self-sufficient tour of Co To.
And during the process of eating out at Co To, 2 restaurants that I like the most are Co To Plus and Ú Thanh.
Co To Plus restaurant
The restaurant serves a variety of seafood specialties such as seafood vermicelli dishes, seafood rice cakes or delicious seafood fried rice. Staff were very friendly and enthusiastic. This is a very worthy place to visit when coming to Co To.
Y Thanh Restaurant
Seeing that people review the food here is delicious, we also stopped by to see it, it was as delicious as the rumor, the price was very reasonable.
The total cost of eating and drinking all 3 days is about 600,000 VND per person.

4. Super attractive entertainment places on Co To island
Come here to swim and checkin is main. The sea here is really beautiful. Although this place has developed tourism for a long time, it still retains its original natural and wild features. Blue sea, white sand, and semi-submerged, half-floating rocks in clear water are a great check-in place.
4.1 Suggest some super nice beaches to check in
- Hong Van beach
Listen to the radio to praise this beach a lot. Only come here to see it as picturesque. The sea water is clear and very cool. On the beach, there are lovely bungalows that are extremely creative and close to nature.
