Numerous coastal provinces and cities throughout Vietnam have closed public beaches, stopped ferry operations, and paused marine tourist activities to guarantee security as Typhoon Kajiki is expected to hit the central area on Monday afternoon.

In Quang Ninh Province, which houses Ha Long Bay, all tourism-related and lodging activities conducted on the water were halted starting from Sunday afternoon. Officials also ceased granting permits for ships and ordered all boats to be brought back to safe locations prior to 3 p.m.

On the same day, maritime tourist activities in Hai Phong, such as the Dong Baiโ€“Cai Vieng boat service and the Cat Haiโ€“Phu Long cable car, were halted.

Authorities at the local level have requested transportation and lodging services to carefully track the storm and modify plans for visitors.

Thanh Hoa banned all ocean-based activities beginning at 8 a.m. on Sunday, whereas Quang Binh, which houses the worldโ€™s biggest cave, Son Doong, along with Phong Nhaโ€“Ke Bang National Park, halted maritime operations from 7 a.m., even though it wasnโ€™t directly affected by the storm.

In Nghe An, officials instructed all boats to remain grounded starting at 5 a.m., with every vessel having returned to secure mooring by 10 a.m.

In Quang Ngai, the Ly Son Island District has halted both the Sa Kyโ€“Ly Son passenger service and the local transportation between the Large Island and Small Island.

Further south, Phu Quoc Island experienced powerful winds and towering waves near the An Thoi Archipelago. Canoe tour companies ceased taking visitors for safety starting from Sunday morning.

Nguyen Minh Tam, head of the Tam Dang Khoa Canoe Company located on the island, mentioned that the ocean was turbulent, featuring powerful gusts and towering swells.

Fast boat services to southern islands, including Rach Giaโ€“Phu Quoc, Ha Tienโ€“Phu Quoc, Phan Thietโ€“Phu Quy, and Vung Tauโ€“Con Dao, continue to run as of Monday morning.

The National Center for Hydro-Meteorological Forecasting reported that the storm continues to maintain a speed of 166 kilometers per hour as it moves northwest at 20 kilometers per hour following almost 20 hours over the ocean.

As of 7 a.m. on Monday, Kajiki was located 145 kilometers away from central Vietnam and is predicted to come ashore in Thanh Hoa and Nghe An provinces during the afternoon of Monday.
