The rip current poses a significant danger to tourists swimming on the beach. Hai Phong City boasts several stunning beaches, such as Beach II in Don Son and Cat Co I, II, and III beaches in Cat Ba Islands, which draw a significant number of tourists each year. However, annually, there are drowning incidents that not only injure tourists but also negatively impact Hai Phong City's tourism industry. This study outlines the current status of Rip and proposes solutions to mitigate its negative impact on tourists when they are swimming on some of Hai Phong City's most beautiful beaches.
