Phan Thiet City welcomed 80 visitors from Cruise
ship Orion II on Tuesday morning, of whom 57 were from the U.S., with
the remainder from Australia, Canada, Switzerland, Germany, the U.K.,
Spain, Italy and Ecuador.
Departing from HCMC, Orion II arrived in Phan Thiet at 5 a.m. As Phan
Thiet has no specialized wharf the cruise anchored two nautical miles
offshore before being transferred to the mainland by boats. Guests were
to visit popular destinations of the coast city such as Bau Trang sand
dunes, Suoi Tien tourist area, Ham Tien-Mui Ne Tourist Area and play
golf at Ocean Dunes Golf Club. The cruise will leave Phan Thiet for
other coastal cities in the central region before finishing its journey
in Ha Long Bay in Quang Ninh Province.
This is the first time Phan Thiet City has welcomed an international
cruise, giving more potential for local tourism. Binh Thuan Province
expects more cruise visits in the future.
