It can be seen that although "born later" than Phuket or Bali, Nha Trang is increasingly gaining the favor of international tourists because of its own characteristics and strengths. According to statistics from the Khanh Hoa Department of Tourism , the number of international visitors to the locality has exceeded the 2024 plan. In the first 8 months of 2024, the total number of visitors served by tourist accommodation establishments reached more than 8 million, an increase of 61.1% over the same period in 2023 (reaching 88.9% of the plan). Of which, international visitors reached more than 3.2 million, 2.6 times higher than the same period, exceeding 6.7% of the plan of 3 million international visitors; domestic visitors reached more than 4.8 million, an increase of 29.1% over the same period (reaching 80% of the plan). Total revenue from tourists is estimated at VND39,513.7 billion, up 65.3% over the same period (reaching 98.5% of the plan). Experts also commented that a series of prestigious votes and impressive numbers show that Nha Trang is gradually making strong breakthroughs, expecting to "usurp the throne" of the best resort paradise in Asia. Along with that, the flexible opening policy and the strategy of diversifying tourism products of Khanh Hoa province are also factors that help this locality raise its position. Bali, Phuket and Khanh Hoa, although possessing wonderful natural beauty, still have points that need to be improved or find solutions to enhance the tourism experience, for example, Bali and Phuket, the fact that the attractions are far apart makes it difficult for tourists to travel and explore the entire area. As for Nha Trang, expanding connections with other tourist destinations is quite favorable. With a developed transportation system, including roads, airways and waterways, visitors can easily combine visiting many attractive destinations in the same trip. The seaport not only diversifies transportation but also opens up the potential for local island tourism, providing rich and unique tourism experiences, putting this beautiful land on par with famous tourist paradises in the world.
