I have a very mixed impression about walking to the beach with the starfish. You can get there by moped or taxi. Then you can walk about 2 km on foot or take a boat from 100 to 400 thousand dong, you will be offered by the locals. Clear water with marine life on one side, and landfills on the other...garbage right next to the beach. The stars are specially brought from the sea and put in the water near cafes and paid sun beds. The poor stars are pulled out of the water, put on the sand for the sake of the photo, and just scatter them. If you go there, don't take the stars out of the water.

Brothers! And those who are not brothers are Sisters! I visited this beach 8 years ago, it was a piece of untouched nature, there was a green jungle wall behind the sandy coastline, and there were a lot of red starfish at the bottom in the clear and transparent water. But that's all in the past. Now: the water area is polluted by various vessels, farting and flowing with oil and fuel directly into the sea. The water is black with dirt and fuel oil. The shore is littered with debris, the surf line is also full of debris and dead fish are found. The coastal jungle was destroyed by bulldozers, resulting in a dirty coastal zone and a monstrous piggy bank. You can be taken to a place where there are still starfish left, for money. I do not recommend visiting this location so that there are no negative impressions.
