Meeting of the Steering Committee for Tourism Development

This morning, March 14th, Comrade Duong Tat Thang - Member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee - chaired a meeting to hear the results of the implementation of tourism development tasks in the past period and to plan for future tasks.

In 2024, Ha Tinh's tourism sector experienced significant growth, with vibrant and diverse tourism activities contributing to attracting visitors. The total number of visitors in 2024 reached over 5.6 million, a 67.9% increase compared to 2023. In the first quarter of 2025, the number is projected to exceed 1.1 million, a 36.5% increase compared to the same period in 2024. Currently, the tourism industry and local authorities are actively promoting various types of tourism, including beach tourism, spiritual tourism, ecotourism, and rural agricultural tourism; connecting and developing tourism routes within the province. Tourism promotion and advertising efforts are being intensified to attract visitors. Simultaneously, local authorities are meticulously preparing for the opening of the 2025 beach tourism season.

At the meeting, delegates noted that, in addition to achievements, Ha Tinh's tourism sector still faces many difficulties and challenges, such as: inadequate investment in infrastructure in some tourist areas; a shortage and weakness in human resources for the tourism industry; and a small number of tourism businesses operating in the area. Delegates also discussed and proposed many measures to effectively implement tourism tasks in 2025.

Concluding the meeting, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Duong Tat Thang requested the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, localities and tourism businesses to uphold a sense of responsibility, focus intensely, and implement various solutions to attract tourists to visit and relax, creating new momentum and enthusiasm, and further developing tourism in Ha Tinh, making it a key economic sector of the province.

The Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism is focusing on inspecting and reviewing preparations for the new tourism season; urging and checking the preparation work of tourist areas and attractions in the province, ensuring security and safety. It is diversifying promotional and publicity methods to create highlights; launching writing, photography, and video clip competitions to spread the beauty of Ha Tinh province; and proactively hosting major events.

At the same time, it is necessary to diversify tourism products; arrange a suitable and standardized service supply chain, create a unique culinary brand for Ha Tinh, and develop new types of services such as beach sports, jet skiing, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding…

Tourism management boards proactively work with businesses in the area, organizing the signing and standardization of service prices; the Ha Tinh Tourism Association strengthens tour route connections, fostering collaboration and mutual support for development.
