Restaurant owners along Cua Lo beach are excited: This year's holiday season has seen a surge in tourists compared to previous years. However, in general, fresh seafood products for customers' meals and other services have basically remained at their prices. Only crab products are rare, not enough to serve customers. Therefore, prices have increased, the lowest is 600,000 VND/kg, even the biggest and most delicious ones are nearly 1 million VND/kg but are not available to customers.

Arriving at Cua Lo and Cua Hoi on April 30 and May 1, people and vehicles were still extremely crowded, the beach was almost full. Therefore, the need for food and drink became scarce like never before. Many tourists had to go to Cua Hoi to find a place to eat but there was still no parking space, and there were no seats in the shops.

Mr. Nguyen Huu Quang - an enthusiastic tourist: Cua Lo is too crowded, restaurants cannot serve customers in time, so I had to go to Cua Hoi, but I could not find a place to eat here either, because there were too many customers, there was no more parking space. Until 8 pm, I returned to Cua Lo, at this time the customers had left, but the seafood was no longer abundant, especially crabs and mackerel were not available, there were even restaurants that "refused" customers because the chefs no longer had the strength to prepare dishes to serve them.
