Quang Ninh province determined that attracting "super-rich" visitors will bring in revenue, create momentum to lead the market, and attract high-end tourists.
However, to meet the needs of this customer segment, the province needs to have truly classy, different and unique products.
One of those products is visiting Ha Long Bay by luxury yacht and super yacht.
Mr. Vu Kien Cuong, Director of Ha Long Bay Management Board, said that currently, Ha Long Bay's tourism resources have only been exploited about 20%. In particular, products serving demanding, classy and unique tourists are still untapped.
To welcome this influx of visitors, the Bay Management Board coordinated with departments and branches to survey and identify untouched, natural beaches and caves that have not yet been exploited. These are products located far from the center, so high-quality vehicles are needed to bring visitors to visit as quickly as possible.
Recently, Tam Son and Dong Hai companies operating in the field of yachts and tourism have signed a Business Cooperation Agreement on a plan to develop high-end private yacht tourism products on Ha Long Bay and the Marina in Ben Doan area.
Dong Hai Company has imported a private super yacht from Italy worth about 600 billion VND to Ha Long. The company is currently preparing conditions to put it into operation from early 2025.
Mr. Doan Viet Dai Tu, Chairman of Tam Son Company, a unit specializing in providing cruise services, said that Ha Long Bay attracts domestic and foreign tourists to admire all year round. However, there is no specialized product here following the model of high-class cruise to enhance the experience for tourists; attracting middle and high-class customers at home and abroad.
Ha Long can fully exploit the high-end models that some other countries in Southeast Asia are exploiting effectively, bringing high economic benefits. However, Ha Long is lacking a 5-star private marina to match its scale and development potential.
Ha Long is a transit point from yacht development markets in Southeast Asia such as Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia to North Asia such as Hong Kong (China), Japan, and South Korea, so the potential to attract high-end customers is huge...
Quang Ninh tourism industry needs to build new, unique, innovative, highly competitive high-end private super yacht tourism products associated with promoting the natural, human and cultural values of Quang Ninh, in order to exploit to the maximum the resources and potential of Ha Long Bay's sea tourism worthy of its heritage status.
According to experts, in addition to the existing destinations and potential, Quang Ninh needs to continue upgrading, investing in infrastructure, improving service quality, first of all, a worthy marina, meeting the needs of welcoming luxury guests.
Ben Doan Port is the location proposed by investors to become a marina, but must focus on investment and upgrading to anchor, dock and receive luxury tourist boats.
Head of Ha Long Bay Management Board Vu Kien Cuong said that the unit has proposed to the provincial leaders to let investors rent the infrastructure of Ben Doan to implement high-end cruise products. Along with that, the provincial staff will pilot a number of caves and unexploited beaches to serve this type of tourist, creating new products with high competitiveness and promoting the value of the heritage.
It is expected that in late 2024 and early 2025, some billionaires in the world will be the first to experience unique tourism products in Ha Long Bay, creating a premise to promote and attract "super-rich" tourists to Quang Ninh.
