Entering the peak summer tourism season, the number of visitors arriving for sightseeing and vacations in Quang Ninh has increased sharply. To continue affirming the destination's image of "Safe - Friendly - Hospitable", the functional forces of the province and localities have proactively and synchronously implemented various plans to ensure security and order, traffic safety, and effectively serve the sightseeing and leisure needs of tourists.
According to the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, during the recent April 30 - May 1 holiday, the entire province welcomed approximately 910,000 visitor arrivals, of which international visitors reached about 37,000 arrivals; total tourism revenue was estimated at 2,820 billion VND. In total across the two holidays of Hung Kings Commemoration Day and April 30 - May 1, Quang Ninh welcomed about 1.345 million visitor arrivals, with tourism revenue estimated at over 4,165 billion VND.
In Bai Chay tourist area, the number of guests staying and participating in cultural and tourism events increased sharply during the holiday. Specifically, the number of staying guests at local hotels and guesthouses reached nearly 6,700 arrivals. Proactively staying on top of the situation, Bai Chay Ward Police closely coordinated with professional divisions of the Provincial Police and police of neighboring localities to step up screening, roll calls, and monitoring of key target subjects; deployed multiple working teams to keep close tabs on the area, checking compliance with legal regulations at conditional business establishments regarding security and order, preventing the emergence of crimes and social vices. Concurrently, the Ward Police coordinated with Road Traffic Police Team No. 2 (Traffic Police Division, Provincial Police) to develop plans for traffic regulation and flow separation from early on and from afar, minimizing the risk of congestion at crowded tourist spots and entertainment venues.
Major Do Quang Trung (Order Police Team, Bai Chay Ward Police) stated: Entering the peak summer tourism season, the number of visitors to Quang Ninh increases sharply, especially on weekends and holidays. To ensure security and order and traffic safety, the unit has assigned officers and soldiers to take charge of key areas and traffic intersections; at the same time, it has advised on arranging additional parking lots for tourist coaches and tour buses to curb stops and parking that cause traffic jams.
During the recent holiday, despite the large number of tourists and vehicles concentrated in the area, security and order were still maintained, with no complicated incidents occurring. Through patrol activities, the police force also assisted 2 lost children in reuniting with their families.
Not only in urban centers, Quang Ninh's island and marine tourism routes have also attracted a large number of domestic and international visitors. The recent Hung Kings Commemoration Day and April 30 - May 1 holidays recorded approximately 2,700 boat trips transporting over 120,000 visitor arrivals to visit Ha Long Bay and island routes. Although travel demand increased sharply compared to the same period in 2025, waterway transport activities were maintained stably and safely.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Von (a tourist from Hung Yen) shared: Throughout the entire journey from home to Quang Ninh and during the Ha Long Bay tour, I noticed that traffic organization was very systematic and diverted early, so no prolonged congestion occurred. Even though there was a large crowd of visitors, security and order were well maintained, with no pushing or shoving.
Lieutenant Colonel Vuong Anh Quoc, Captain of the Waterway Police Team (Traffic Police Division, Provincial Police), said that the unit continues to strengthen its grasp of the area and do well in forecasting situations to develop plans for ensuring security and order, and traffic safety on waterway routes. At the same time, authorities step up legal dissemination and are determined to strictly handle violations that pose safety risks.
The summer tourism season is also a time when students, youth, and teenagers participate in many recreational activities and trips with their families. Meanwhile, the risks of traffic accidents and drownings still harbor many complicated developments. Following the directives of the Ministry of Public Security and the province, police in communes, wards, and special zones continue to review and recommend the installation of warning signs in dangerous areas; coordinate the management and education of youths showing signs of violations early on from the grassroots level.
Professional divisions of the Provincial Police also continue to coordinate with commune-level police to strengthen their grasp of local situations, strictly manage conditional business establishments regarding security and order; and synchronously implement preventive measures to effectively combat various types of crimes and law violations.
With the proactiveness of functional forces and close coordination among sectors and localities, Quang Ninh is making every effort to maintain a safe, civilized, and friendly tourism environment, contributing to further asserting its position as one of the country's top attractive destinations in this year's summer tourism season.
