Meanwhile, there was no wind or heavy rain so tourists still kept their habit of going to the beach to walk around and exercise. Some foreign tourists also surfed, thinking that this was the right wave level to experience this sport .

According to the forecast of the Central Central Hydrometeorological Station, due to the influence of storm Kalmaegi, the coast of Da Nang will have rising water due to strong winds, 0.5-1m high.

This unit warns of rising sea levels accompanied by big waves causing flooding in low-lying areas, waves overflowing dikes, coastal roads, coastal landslides, slowing flood drainage in the area.

All ships, boats, and aquaculture areas in dangerous areas are strongly affected by storms, whirlwinds, strong winds, big waves, and rising sea levels.

On November 6-7, in the communes and wards of Da Nang city, it is also forecasted that there will be a large-scale heavy rain.
