Attraction after having highway

Since the end of April 2023, when the Dau Giay - Phan Thiet expressway was officially opened to traffic and then the Vinh Hao - Phan Thiet expressway was put into use, it has shown that the economic attraction of sea tourism is even stronger. Not only on holidays and weekends, now Phan Thiet City is almost always crowded with visitors coming to visit, relax, have fun, and shop. Therefore, for a large number of tourists from Ho Chi Minh City or the Southeast provinces, instead of going to the last intersection in Ham Kiem commune and turning left to go to the tourist center of Phan Thiet City, they choose to follow DT 719B to tourist areas in Thuan Quy, Tan Thuan or up to the spiritual tourist destination of Ta Cu mountain to find peace.

Not only this route, now the DT 719 route has also been upgraded and expanded, creating a seamless connection to coastal areas, contributing to promoting tourism development in the district. Even the mobile information infrastructure in Ham Thuan Nam has been strongly invested in and developed, mobile waves cover all tourist areas, providing good high-speed Internet access, fully meeting the services to serve the needs of businesses, people and tourists.

In particular, with the attractiveness of cultural values, beliefs and religions, Ham Thuan Nam really knows how to take advantage and please people, when for many years, Ta Cu Mountain has always chosen the location of Ta Cu Mountain as the place to organize mountain climbing competitions in early spring and open cycling competitions in May. In particular, the 25th Ta Cu Mountain Climbing Competition attracted 337 professional and non-professional athletes from 42 delegations of 8 provinces and cities in the Central Highlands, Central and Southeast regions to participate. The Ta Cu Mountain Cycling Race also attracted 120 athletes with a 41 km long competition route in 2 categories: Open and amateur.

It is these traditional sports tournaments that have partly "accelerated" the local tourism industry, when in the first 9 months of the year, Ham Thuan Nam welcomed nearly 160,000 visitors to visit and stay, with estimated revenue reaching 72.5 billion VND, compared to the same period in 2022, an increase of 5,450 visitors and 22.5 billion VND in revenue.

Opportunities open up for agricultural tourism

Sea tourism and spiritual tourism have initially affirmed their brands, so after the "boost" from the National Tourism Year "Binh Thuan - Green Convergence", Ham Thuan Nam is calling on businesses to invest in sea sports tourism, entertainment and develop unique tourism products suitable for natural advantages. Along with that, promote the development of garden tourism combined with promoting local products. Taking advantage of being the largest dragon fruit growing area in the province, with nearly 14,000 hectares, the district is focusing on exploiting large dragon fruit farm and cooperative models suitable for agricultural tourism to explore and experience... This direction contributes to the shift from agricultural production to agricultural economy in the direction of multi-sector integration.

In particular, after the dragon fruit garden of Mr. Nguyen Van Chin (Phu My village, Ham My commune) which was put into operation in 2019, then the fruit garden of Mr. Nguyen Thanh Truc (Minh Tien village, Ham Minh commune), the high-tech agricultural farm Binh An (Thuan Quy commune), with its main products being organic grapes and melons, is a "new breeze", enriching and diversifying the tourism model.

Currently, the District People's Committee is directing departments and offices to strengthen propaganda work to raise awareness of rural tourism development. At the same time, it is assessing the current situation and human resources of rural tourism to have directions for development and training. As well as building a database, a map of the network of rural tourism sites and implementing digital transformation solutions in rural tourism associated with new rural construction...

By connecting spiritual tourism activities, beach resorts and garden tourism, Ham Thuan Nam district will create a unique tourist "tour" to attract tourists. Thereby, gradually improving the quality of material and spiritual life of the people.
