Mr. Nguyen Van Loc, former Director of Khanh Hoa Department of Construction, said today there are many works shielding the view of the sea along the beach of Nha Trang, such as Ana Mandara, Sailing Club, Louisiana, E-Land Four Season ....
National Geographic rated the beach of Nha Trang as the worst beach in 2010, because the natural landscape had been quickly ruined by coastal projects.
"This is a big concern. If we do not stop and reverse the damage, the natural landscapes of Nha Trang Bay will be destroyed," said Loc.
