Situated about 7-8 km south-east of Bãi Cháy lies the small Ti T???p Island. It displays a beach shaped like a crescent moon, and sand that has been washed to a snowy white by the tide.

On 22 November 1962, this tiny island had the honour of receiving a visit from astronaut Ghermann Ti T???p, a hero of the former Soviet Union, accompanied by H??? Chí Minh. To perpetuate the remembrance of their visit, Uncle H??? named the place Ti T???p Island. It has now become an attractive beach for tourists and has various of tourist services

Thirty-five years afterwards, on 27 June 1997, Ti T???p returned to the island having his name. Deeply moved, he wrote in the souvenir book of the Management Board of H??? Long Bay: "My deepest thanks to destiny, which has allowed me to come back to this tiny island.” It has become a beach attracting many visitors.
