The 2015 Da Nang tourism season was kicked off on April 25 at the Bien Dong (East Sea) Park in Son Tra Peninsula in Da Nang to promote the city as a safe, friendly and attractive destination among tourists.

The programme is to introduce new facilities and tourism services for this year’s sea tourism season, promote the image of Son Tra Peninsula alongside local beaches and call for the community’s joint action to protect environment.

Visitors are able to enjoy a wide range of events including beach sports, international rescue manoeuvre, beach camping, flahsmobs, and traditional coastal challenges, such as underwater tug of war, fishing-net making and fish carrying.

A music concert and about 80 booths selling food and souvenirs will be also organised to serve tourist alongside a photo exhibition capturing moments of the city and a Vespa and Lambretta scooters show.

Tours to explore Son Tra Peninsula take place daily, comprising a number of exciting activities, such as Jeep tour around the peninsula, fishing with fishermen, scuba diving to see coral reefs and cruising together with cycle racing and fun flying paragliding.

The week-long programme runs through May 2 on the sidelines of Da Nang International Fireworks Competition 2015.
