Nha Trang

Nha Trang lies in a beautiful bay on the south central coast of Vietnam and has rapidly developed into a bustling destination for sun and fun. With white sandy beaches as well as nearby islands with clear turquoise waters, Nha Trang is also known as one of the best places in Vietnam for excellent fishing, snorkeling and scuba diving. Boat trips are also a real highlight of Nha Trang.

What to do

Nha Trang possess miles and miles of empty beaches, deserted bays, numerous islands and coral reefs, providing opportunity to swim, snorkel and scuba dive. In addition, tourists may come to Nha Trang just for their days relaxing on the beach, getting around on walking or cycling and experiencing the local restaurants, bars and nightlife.

However, there are many attractions away from the beach including Thap Ba Hot Spring Center, the Po Nagar Cham Tower and the Oceanographic Institute, among others.

When to go

Nha Trang is warm all year round with an average temperature of 23 Degree Celcious. Generally, the best time to visit Nha Trang is from late January to late October. The wettest months are November and December, but rain usually falls only at night or in the morning.

Travel tips

On the beach, vendors sell about everything you might need such as seafood, fruit, drinks, books. If you find it an inconvenient hassle, don't support them. Also, please take care when choosing a scuba diving operator or boat operator as some of the companies use outdated equipment, which is not environmentally friendly to the marine ecosystem.
