Da Nang launches sea tourism season 2019

The central Da Nang city launched the sea tourism season 2019 on April 26, expecting to attract large crowds of visitors, both domestic and foreign.
The season will feature a signing ceremony of pledges among travel agencies to protect tourism environment, pigeon releasing, a kayak race on My Khe sea, a chess championship on Ban Co (Chessboard) peak, a hot-air balloon show, an artistic kite flying event, souvenir stalls and daily nigh music shows.

Visitors could have a chance to enjoy scuba diving, tours of Son Tra peninsula, join a swimming competition, and watch night skies by telescopes, among others.

Head of the management board for Son Tra peninsula and Da Nang beaches Nguyen Duc Vu said the annual activity aims to introduce new tourism services during April 30 – May 1 holiday, thus raising public awareness of sea and island environment protection.

Last year, the city was ranked the second most popular destination for solo or couple travellers, reported the Republic of Korea’s Ticket Monster Inc. Da Nang was also described as the best place to live in Vietnam.
