NINH THUẬN —  Ninh Thuận Province's People's Committee has reopened tourism to domestic travellers as part of a plan on tourism activities and prevention and control of COVID-19.

Tourists arriving in Ninh Thuận Province must be fully vaccinated within the last 12 months, or be fully recovered from a COVID-19 infection, or have a negative test certificate for COVID-19.

Hotels and travel services must strictly comply with regulations on the prevention and control of the COVID-19 pandemic.

From now until the end of the first quarter of 2022, the province will allow a small number of tourism business establishments that meet all safety conditions to welcome domestic tourists from provinces and cities that have controlled COVID.

In the second quarter of 2022, the province will welcome all domestic tourists and pilot an international tourist welcoming programme.

From the beginning of the third quarter of 2022, the province will organise tourism activities in the "new normal" state.

Ninh Thuận is home to ancient rare and precious coral reefs which only emerge on the water surface from May to the end of July, creating a spectacular scene.

The province is famous for Núi Chúa National Park with its tropical landscapes and climate, including dwarf forests on rocky mountains, mineral springs, white sandy beaches, colorful coral reefs and spectacular caves, all making up a rare ecosystem.

The province is also known for the well-preserved wild beaches of Ninh Chữ, Vịnh Hy Bay, Hang Rái, and Bình Tiên. The 10km-long Ninh Chữ Beach is considered to be one of the nine most beautiful beaches in Việt Nam. —  VNS
