THE Ngwetaung Beach in Hainggyi Island, Ngaputaw Township, Ayeyawady Region, attracted 14,355 domestic visitors in August 2025, according to Daw Ni Ni Mar, an executive of the Myanmar Tourism Entrepreneurs Association (Ngwetaung Beach).
Located near the Myat Mawtin Pagoda, Ngwetaung Beach is a popular year-round destination for local travellers. Most visitors reportedly come from Yangon Region and the Nay Pyi Taw Council Area.
“In July this year, 11,155 domestic travellers visited Ngwetaung Beach. In August, the number rose to 14,355. Visitor arrivals are steadily increasing, and the beach continues to welcome travellers throughout the year,” Daw Ni Ni Mar said.
To ensure visitors enjoy their trips in a safe and peaceful environment, arrangements have been made for leisure activities and services such as bicycle rentals, motorboat rides, and horse riding. In addition, stalls offer local food, consumer goods, and souvenirs. — ASH/KZL
