Sao Beach listed among top 10 island beaches to relax on
Readers of an online website, www.cntraveler.com, have selected Sao Beach on Phu Quoc Island of the Mekong Delta province of Kien Giang as one of the top 10 island beaches to unplug and unwind.
They picked Sao Beach for “its deserted, powder-white shore and lush tropical foliage – those gently swaying fronds offer natural shade from the high noon sun.”
Also, as the beach is isolated and has little in the way of facilities, it’s usually empty.
The other beaches on the list of 10 include Meads Bay, Anguilla; Punta Coco, Isla de Holbox, Mexico; Banana Bay, St Kitts; and Nevis and Honeymoon, St John, US Virgin Islands.
Cu Lao Cham to limit number of visitors to preserve biosphere
Facing the recent huge influxes of tourists, Hoi An’s authorities have decided to allow only 3,000 people to visit its Cu Lao Cham Islands every day, saying the biosphere recognized by UNESCO needs to be protected.
The new rule is slated to take effect on July 1.
The group of small islands, some 15 kilometers off Hoi An’s coast, has been a favorite destination of many travelers.
Rapid increases in arrivals have put the islands, with a combined population of 2,500, under a lot of pressure, especially its environment and water resources, Hoi An’s authorities said.
Official figures showed that more than 75,000 tourists visited Cu Lao Cham, which was recognized as a world biosphere by UNESCO in 2009, over the first four months this year.
That was nearly a three-fold increase from the same period last year, and during the national holiday on April 30 and May 1, up to 11,000 tourists came to the islands a day.
“If we continue to let tourists flock into Cu Lao Cham, we will likely lose the islands in a few years,” Nguyen The Hung, vice chairman of Hoi An Town People’s Committee, said in an interview with Thanh Nien.
Meanwhile, asked about travel companies’ responses to the new rule, Dinh Thi Thu Thuy, chief of Hoi An’s tourism division, said many of them had previously proposed authorities to take similar action, as “signs of exhaustion” already showed in the local boat station and services.
Authorities will collaborate with the businesses in controlling the situation so the number of visitors will always be within the limit, Thuy said.
In the meantime, she said, they have been promoting stay-over services on the islands, as statistics showed that less than 10% of tourists spent the night on Cu Lao Cham.
