Unlike in previous years, the plans for the Da Nang Beach Tourism Season 2014 were announced many months ago aiming to attract more visitors to Da Nang this summer.

The Management Board of the Son Tra Peninsula and Da Nang Tourism Beaches has arranged for a wide range of entertainment activities, and they have appealed for the active involvement of local travel agents and service providers. 

A paramotor in action

The Da Nang Beach Tourism Season 2014 is expected to be the city’s most outstanding event this year, particularly with the absence of the Da Nang International Fireworks Competition.

The season will see local residents from all districts and businesses participating in such interesting cultural activities as introducing consumer products and local foods, planting trees, and raising public awareness of marine environmental protection.

In addition, many new tours to the Son Tra Peninsula have now been introduced by local travel agencies to tap the site’s full tourism potential.

Visitors have the opportunity to join local fishermen for their festivals and to engage in many interesting activities.  These include going fishing with the local fishermen, weaving fishing nets, fishing competitions, tug of war, diving to discover the underwater world of the coral reefs, and touring the peninsula by bike.

According to the Management Board, the opening week of the Beach Tourism Season 2014 will run from 30 April to 5 May.  It will feature over 20 sporting and cultural activities which will be held along the Hoang Sa-Vo Nguyen Giap-Truong Sa coastal route.  Apart from entertainments, there will also be various events for the promotion of marine culture and environmental protection.  With exciting activities in the air and on the water, the Da Nang Beach Tourism Season 2014 will help to further promote the city’s image of marine tourism to domestic and foreign visitors and create a unique and sustainable tourism product for the city.
