Winter Camp International Golf Course opens the way for year-round tourism in Quang Tri.

Welcoming a group of 33 international golf trainees for an extended training period at Sun Spa Resort and Blue Diamond Golf Links is not just a simple sports and tourism activity, but also demonstrates a new direction: gradually eliminating the seasonality of tourism in Quang Tri in particular and the North Central and Northern regions in general during the winter months.

On December 29, 2025, Sun Spa Resort, in collaboration with Blue Diamond Golf Links ( Quang Tri ), welcomed 33 golf students from South Korea to participate in a two-month Winter Camp program.

Golf trainees from South Korea are excited about their extended training camp in Quang Tri.

This is considered the first international golf training activity to kick off 2026 in the Central region, and also serves as a "test run" for the winter sports tourism and training model.

The Winter Camp group, comprising coaches, young trainees, and professional golfers, chose Quang Tri as their destination due to its mild climate and minimal fluctuations during the winter, making it suitable for long-term training programs.

The highlight of the training course is Blue Diamond Golf Links – a golf course designed by legend Greg Norman, highly regarded for its pristine natural terrain, challenging design, and ability to meet international training and competition standards.

The golf training program for students from South Korea lasts two months.

Alongside the high-intensity training sessions, the trainees stay at Sun Spa Resort – a resort boasting a rare setting that combines both the sea and the river.

The integrated "training - relaxation - recovery" model helps golfers maintain stable physical and mental fitness throughout their training period, while also extending their stay compared to short-term traditional vacations .

Beyond just golf courses and resorts, the Winter Camp group also participates in tours and explorations of local natural, historical, and cultural heritage, thereby contributing to promoting Quang Tri as a safe, friendly, and enriching winter destination.

According to the organizers, attracting international golf teams for training during the winter is a strategic approach that helps break the seasonal tourism bottleneck in Quang Tri and other provinces in Central and Northern Vietnam.

Blue Diamond Golf Links – a golf course designed by legend Greg Norman – is located on the Bao Ninh peninsula, Dong Hoi ward.

When sports tourism, especially golf, develops in the form of long-term training camps, localities not only increase the number of visitors but also enhance spending value, creating sustainable livelihoods for the tourism industry year-round.
