“It is not very uncomfortable bathing here, but I hope that people will sympathize with the city for the safety of themselves and the community in this Covid-19,” said Ngo Van Qua, Vice-Head of the Vung City Order Tau. The boat told the Ho Chi Minh City group that it had just arrived at Bai Sau Beach.

In sunny 34 degrees C on 4/30, Mr. Qua used a whistle, dark glasses, a mask along the embankment to repeat the information, and reminded visitors to wear a mask to ensure morning safety to the afternoon.

On the first day of the four-day vacation, Thuy Van Street was crowded with cars parked in long lines, moving slowly. Many parking lots are full. But Back Beach is almost 10 km long, white waves washed ashore without shadow. The image is in stark contrast to the weekend, when thousands of swimmers defied the ban.

The authorities have tightened all the beaches in the city of Vung Tau to close the doors, not to serve tourists to fight the disease. The barriers to the roads that lead to the sea are reinforced, tight, and there are always people on duty. Mobile police vehicles, traffic constantly on the island along the coast

Before going with his wife for a two-day vacation, Mr. Le Phi Long (in Ho Chi Minh City) did not know that he would not be allowed to swim. “This is the first of dozens of visits to Vung Tau without bathing. I am quite surprised but the translation is not over, putting safety first is the right thing to do,” Long said.

Standing on the beach for over 20 minutes, Mr. Long and his wife took advantage of various types of photos. They leave and plan to visit some places in Front Beach to watch the sunset, eat banh khot, a specialty of the coastal city.

However, not everyone agrees with the closure of the beach. Nguyen Van Hoa, a tourist from Can Tho, shared that instead of huddling on the embankments, in the cool park, ask people to stretch out when bathing and wear masks after landing. “It will be OK”.

Mr. Pham Khac To, Director of the Vung Tau City Tourism Management Board, said that more than 1,000 people, including police, border guards, city order … participated in the bathing ban during the holidays. . They will be on call from 5:30 to 18:30 every day. “Most people are happy to cooperate, there is no case to oppose or sneak into the sea,” To said.

The case of Covid-19, Ba Ria-Vung Tau province, was not recorded during the meeting two days ago when the opening or closing of a sea vacation was discussed. The idea that the number of visitors to the beach should be divided, divided at the entrance gate of the province and mobilize visitors to ensure a safe distance. However, after that, the province’s Tourism Department continued to close the beach.
