On February 21 (ie, the 5th day of the Lunar New Year of Binh Ngo), the Nha Trang Beach Rescue and Relief Team (Nha Trang Bay Management Board) said that rescue forces found and brought a foreign male body ashore drifting in Nha Trang waters.
Currently, Nha Trang Ward Police are coordinating with relevant units to investigate, verify the victim's identity and clarify the cause of the incident.
Also on February 20, rescue forces promptly discovered and successfully rescued 10 cases swept away by large waves and submerged.
Including some foreign tourists. Thanks to regular duty deployment and early detection, these cases were all brought ashore safely.
According to the commander of the Nha Trang Beach Rescue and Rescue Team, during the Binh Ngo Lunar New Year 2026, the weather in the Nha Trang sea area is complicated, the sea is rough, with big waves, posing many unsafe risks for swimmers.
Faced with the above situation, the rescue force proactively planted warning signs of danger in areas with large waves, arranged 100% of personnel on duty, and at the same time directly reminded people and tourists not to swim in the sea when weather conditions are not guaranteed.
However, there are still many tourists who disregard warnings and intentionally go to sea, leading to unfortunate incidents.
On February 20th and 21st, the number of visitors flocking to Nha Trang for spring travel increased sharply.
The central area recorded many hotels falling into a "room shortage" situation, showing the great attraction of sea destinations at the beginning of the year, but also putting significant pressure on ensuring safety at beaches.
Functional agencies recommend that people and tourists strictly comply with the signs and instructions of the rescue force, and do not swim in the sea when there is a warning of big waves to ensure safety of life.
