Its name, meaning “Broken Ship Cape,” comes from the site’s distinctive shape: towering rock slabs standing upright in a curved formation that wraps around the shoreline, resembling the bow of a ship reaching out toward the open sea.
Surrounded by emerald waters, clear blue skies, and rugged mountains, the landscape feels both powerful and poetic.



The highlight of Mui Tau Be is a natural seaside “pool” nestled right beside the waves — a spot where you can sit quietly and listen to the sea crashing against the rocky cliffs.
At dawn, this is also one of Con Dao’s most beautiful sunrise viewpoints, with the untouched silhouette of Bay Canh Island emerging on the horizon.
More than just a sightseeing spot, Mui Tau Be has become a favorite check-in location, offering dramatic and pristine backgrounds perfect for nature-inspired photos.
