Ca Mau Cape tourism site expected to attract 2 million visitors by 2030

Ca Mau Cape tourism site located in Ngoc Hien and Nam Can districts would cover 2,100 hectares. It would be developed into one of Vietnam’s largest eco-tourism centres and could become a popular destination on Mekong Delta tours.

The site would help connect Ca Mau and other tourism sites in the Mekong Delta such as Phu Quoc Island in Kien Giang Province.

By 2025, Ca Mau Cape tourism is expected to meet national tourism criteria and be recognised as a National Tourism Site, according to the prime minister-approved master plan for the development of Ca Mau Cape National Tourism Site towards 2030.

The site would offer travellers options for sightseeing and exploring. It will begin by focusing on attracting high-end tourists and focus on resort tourism, eco-tourism and entertainment. By 2030, high-end tourism will be the site’s priority.

For the domestic market, the Ca Mau Cape tourism site continues to focus on its main market of visitors from HCM City, the southeast region, the Mekong Delta provinces, Hanoi and the northern provinces.

For the international market, priority will be given to target markets such as tourists from the US, Australia and northeast Asia, including South Korea, China and Japan.

The prime minister has instructed Ca Mau Province to work with the Ministry of Planning and Investment and the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to call for investment into the project.
