Major Beach Renovation in Vung Tau
The main beach in Vung Tau, Bai Sau, will be closed until April 2025 due to a major renovation project. This $40 million initiative aims to modernize the beachfront and Thuy Van Street, transforming the area into Thuy Van Park, spanning over 19 hectares. While this upgrade promises an improved visitor experience in the future, travel agents should note that international tourists may find Vung Tau less appealing until the renovations are complete. Beachfront hotels like Imperial and Ibis Styles are currently experiencing a drop in arrivals, impacting the destination’s appeal until April 2025.
Recommend Alternative Destinations
To ensure your clients have the best beach experiences in Vietnam, consider recommending alternative destinations like Phu Quoc or Da Nang for the time being. Vung Tau will be ready to welcome visitors again with a new look just in time for the April 30th holiday celebrations in 2025.
