This year's April 30 and May 1 holidays lasting 5 days, coinciding with weekends, have created favorable conditions for people and tourists to plan to visit and relax.
In Binh Dinh, the number of tourists has increased significantly, estimated at more than 315,000, an increase of 14% over the same period in 2024. Tourism revenue is estimated at VND 350 billion, up 15%.
During the holiday, the weather in Binh Dinh is hot and sunny, especially during the day, causing tourists to choose coastal destinations to avoid heat and relax.
Recorded from 4pm to 6pm every day, Quy Nhon beach is always bustling with people and tourists.
"My family has been in Quy Nhon since April 29. On this long vacation, my family chose to travel by sea to avoid the heat. During the day, you can visit other places, but in the afternoon, you can still go back to Quy Nhon beach to swim, because this is the most refreshing way to cool down," said Ms. Nguyen Hong Hanh, a tourist from Hanoi.
In addition to the central beaches, famous island tourism destinations such as Cat Tien, Nhon Ly, Hon Kho, Ky Co - Eo Gio also attract a large number of tourists to visit and explore.
Mr. Nguyen Anh Tuan - Deputy Director of Hoang Dat Tourism and Trading Joint Stock Company (Ky Co tourist area operating unit) - said: "On the occasion of this year, due to the coincidence of the 50th anniversary of the liberation of the South and the reunification of the country in Ho Chi Minh City, in the early days of the holidays, the number of visitors to Ky Co somewhat decreased slightly.
According to Mr. Tuan, the wild beauty and poetic natural scenery are the reasons why Ky Co is always in the "top" of destinations loved and chosen by tourists.
"To bring the best experience to tourists, we always maintain stable ticket prices, while constantly innovating culinary services and improving service quality," said Mr. Tuan.
On this occasion, the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Binh Dinh province coordinated with the Provincial Tourism Association, Vietnam Railway Corporation and FLC hotels & Resorts to organize a trial of a free cruise ship called "Cultural Journey to Dat Vo".
The train will operate on May 1 and 2, connecting Quy Nhon station and Dieu Tri station. On this journey, visitors can experience the unique features of culture and traditional cuisine.
The 2nd Binh Dinh Food Culture Festival - 2025 will also be held on a large scale, with the participation of 55 food stalls from many countries such as Thailand, Korea, Japan... and provinces and cities across the country such as Gia Lai, Nghe An, Soc Trang, Da Nang, Dak Lak, Ben Tre, Ho Chi Minh City, Thanh Hoa... to serve the needs of diners to enjoy and explore culinary culture.
