On peak period of Tet (from the second to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year), room capacity of many tourist accomodations in Ham Tien-Mui Ne areas filled only 30-40% while the previous years had reached almost 100%. Some hotels, resorts posted room capacity of 10-30%.

Currently, only 70% of all tourist facilities in Binh Thuan are staying open for visitors. At the same time, the number of people going pinics or visiting popular tourist hotspots such as: Cam Binh, Co Thach pagoda, Hon Rom, Doi Duong, Tien Thanh….has sharply decreased about 50% against that of the previous Tet holiday.

To ensure the safety for tourists amid the new resurgence of Covid-19 outbreak, tourism authorities have given guidelines to accommodation facilities to implement daily Covid-19 reports and connect with national system for Covid-19 safety.

Tourism enterprises, tourist establishments and visitors are also asked to strictly apply regulations on Covid-19 prevention and control and carry out all protective measures to ensure visitors’ safety.
