On the day alone, the island received nearly 1,000 visitors, the biggest number of visitors on a single day, said Dang Quang Son, Director of the management board of the Sa Ky Port under the Quang Ngai Transport Department.

The number of tourists is double what the island saw last year, said Son, adding that his board had to arrange more high-speed boats to serve the tourists.

According to Vice Chairwoman of Ly Son district People’s Committee Pham Thi Huong, the tourists mainly visited the natural landscape and national historic relics, in particular the showroom of image and objects relating to the Hoang Sa team and boat racing festival.
