Vietnam has 2,770 near-shore islands and its 125 beaches and bays are serving tourism.
More than 1, 400 accommodations have been developed along the coastal areas for sea and island vacationers.
Under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism’s tourism development master plan to 2020, the country has five key tourism zones relating to se🐈as and islands among the total seven ones.
