Some representatives from local travel agencies are predicting that the city is likely to welcome a larger number of visitors during this year’s summer tourism season against last year.  The main reason is that the Da Nang International Fireworks Festival (DIFF) will take place in the city between 30 April and 24 June, and there are numerous fascinating cultural activities being held on the sidelines to encourage visitors to extend their stay in the city.

Over the 4-month summer tourism season, a large volume of tourists is expected to visit local beaches for swimming and to take part in numerous exciting sporting activities here.

Mr Nguyen Duc Vu, Deputy Head of the Management Board of the Son Tra Peninsula and Da Nang Tourism Beaches, said that various fascinating cultural and sporting activities will be organised during the upcoming local Beach Tourism Season and the 'Summer Destination' programme.

In particular, there will be a photo exhibition about the marine environment and the ecosystem on Son Tra Peninsula, and a drawing contest for local school pupils.  In addition, a presentation contest for local residents, including university students and school pupils, will be held in the city to help them gain an insight into the Peninsula.
