Nha Trang beach
Nha Trang is Vietnam’s premier beach resort with a couple of kilometers of relatively pristine white beach and several hotels catering to both local and foreign tourists. For a country with such a long coastline it seems surprising that Nha Trang is the only diving hub along it. There are a couple of local islands off shore that offer some interesting diving possibilities and most dive operators here also run to the more remote loactions. Big animals are hard to find here (apart from the local morays) but the abundance of marine life makes fascinating diving. Nha Trang is more renowned for its vibrant nudibranchs and extensive coral biodiversity, over 350 species of coral can be found here.
Emerald waters lap onto dazzling white sand at this popular resort on Vietnam’s south central coast. Nha Trang’s appeal lies in its ability to cater for the most demanding of visitors yet remain gracefully unspoilt; a town for late night dancing and lazy days in the sun without the neon glare of an overdeveloped resort. The beautifully clear turquoise waters around Nha Trang make for excellent fishing, snorkelling and scuba diving and a day on the beach here redefines relaxation; without leaving your sandy spot you can enjoy a cool beer, lunch, massage, even a manicure or beauty treatment! One of the true highlights of Nha Trang though is a boat trip to the beautiful offshore islands. For a truly memorable boat trip, Mama Hanh’s island hopping party fleet with its impromptu floating bar and deck-side is not to be missed!
There are several offshore islands but the majority of Nha Trang’s scuba dive trips go to Hon Mun island.
