Vietnam

Typhoon Maysak made landfall the night of July 4 near the China-Vietnam border, battering coastal northern Vietnam. Quang Ninh province (Ha Long Bay) is dealing with the aftermath - power outages, structural damage, fallen trees, and debris - and tourist boat trips were suspended during the storm. Expect Ha Long Bay cruises and boat trips to still be disrupted or delayed as cleanup continues, along with lingering power and road issues. Reconfirm domestic flights and boat tours, keep bookings flexible, avoid storm-damaged coastal and low-lying areas, and follow local guidance during recovery.
