This is the ship that ran aground in 2023, which has become a famous check-in spot for travel enthusiasts in recent times.

However, due to the ship's long-term deterioration, local authorities have placed warning signs, prohibiting people and tourists from going near the ship.

Many parts of the ship were disassembled.

Previously, on February 26, 2023, Thanh Hung 06 ship was on its way from Nhon Trach port (Dong Nai province) to Cam Ranh port (Khanh Hoa province) when it lost its rudder, drifted and ran aground at the mossy beach of Tu Thien village, Phuoc Dinh commune, Thuan Nam district (former Ninh Thuan province), now in Phuoc Dinh commune, Khanh Hoa province.

The ship was stranded for more than 2 years and was seriously damaged.

Since then, this ship - owned by Thanh Hung Real Estate Company Limited (HCMC) - has been abandoned and seriously damaged.

On April 14, 2025, the Civil Judgment Enforcement Office of Thuan Nam district (formerly Ninh Thuan province) decided to hand over the ship to the auction winner for dismantling and salvage.

The dismantling of the ship took place carefully, ensuring safety.

Mr. Tran Nguyen Trung Dung, representative of the ship dismantling unit, said that since mid-June 2025, he has coordinated with the authorities to inspect the oil tanks and drain all remaining fuel to prevent pollution of the marine environment. The dismantling and salvage of the ship will be carried out in stages, ensuring safety and not affecting the environment.
