If you take generic manifold of dimension $\ge3$ then convex hull is not closed. BUT it is hard to make explicit and generic at the same time :)

To see it do the following exercise first: Show that in generic 3-dimensional manifold, arbitrary smooth convex surface contains no geodesic. (Here geodesic = geodesic in ambient space.)
