Marine tourism is beginning to make its mark on Vietnam ’s
tourism performance according to the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
The ministry reported that marine tourism has posted a sales
growth rate averaging 23.7% annual, 2000 to 2010 and the trend continues.
The sector should achieve revenue of around US$10 billion by
2020.
To reach the goal, six destinations will be developed to
attract marine tourism.
They are: Halong Bay, Tu Long-Cat Ba in the north; Lang
Co-Canh Duong; Hoi An-Cu Lao Cham; Nha Trang-Cam Ranh; Phan Thiet-Mui Ne in the
central region; and Phu Quoc near the Mekong Delta province of Kien Giang.
Seaports will be improved, or built, at Halong, Danang, Nha
Trang, Ho Chi Minh City
and Phu Quoc by 2015.
The long-term plan is to focus on coastal regions in the
north (Mong Cai-Ninh Binh) and those in the north-central and the central
(Thanh Hoa-Binh Thuan), in the southeast (Ba Ria-Vung Tau-HCMC) and in the
southwest (Tien Giang-Ca Mau-Ha Tien).
To support marine tourism, the ministry has suggested to the
central government to exempt visas for foreign visitors to popular tourism
islands such as Con Dao and Phu Quoc.
