According to Mr. Tran Van Phu - Head of Nha Trang Tourist Boat Management Department, on August 30, only more than 4,000 visitors visited the islands in the bay.
This number is much lower than previous holidays and is not even as good as the typical summer peak.
According to Lao Dong in the city center, the roads are not as congested as every year.
The number of visitors to Khanh Hoa is mainly independent visitors, traveling with families, traveling by private vehicle from Ho Chi Minh City, Can Tho, Tay Ninh...
Some attractions such as Ponagar Tower, Oceanographic Museum or Vinpearl Wharf only start welcoming more visitors in the afternoon. Among them, there are many Russian and Korean tourists.
According to Mr. Nguyen Phi Hong Nguyen - Vice President of Nha Trang - Khanh Hoa Travel Association, the reason is that many families choose to rest at home or return home for the holidays.
In addition, the important event celebrating the 80th anniversary of National Day also makes tourists tend to focus on Hanoi and the northern provinces.
It can be seen that Khanh Hoa is brilliant in the festive atmosphere, but Nha Trang tourism industry is experiencing a rather quiet holiday.
This is also a signal for the locality to consider adjusting tourism products, grasping the travel trends of domestic visitors during major holidays.
