Nha Trang Activities - Nha Trang Travel Guide


As one of Vietnam most popular resort destinations, Nha Trang has a full range of leisure and sporting activities. Known internationally as a beach and diving paradise, the city more than lives up to its reputation as a great place for relaxation.

Nha Trang travel guide:

Diving and snorkelling: is extremely popular at Nha Trang, with the waters off the coast considered among the best diving destinations in Vietnam tours. There are many dive operators in the city that offer a full range of services, including instruction, equipment rental, and dive tours. The reef off Nha Trang is shallow enough to be a haven for snorkellers, while the topography of the underwater surface creates many different zones featuring a wide range of marine life.
Fishing: in the waters around Nha Trang is very satisfying, with the ocean teeming with many species of edible fish. You can choose to fish from the beach, off the rocks or from a boat, depending on the type of fish you are after and what style of fishing you are comfortable with.
Water sports: are well catered for at Nha Trang, with swimming, wind surfing, parasailing and jet skiing all available. Although you can swim at the main beach, the water is not the cleanest and the bottom drops off sharply. A better option for swimmers are the beaches several kilometres north and south of the city, which are easily reached by motorcycle.
Boating: out on Nha Trang Bay is very rewarding, with mild weather, prevailing breezes and plenty of islands to explore. Boats can be hired from Nha Trang harbour, or you can approach one of the many tour operators in the city.
Spas: are located in Thap Ba, just a few kilometres from Nha Trang. These hot springs are considered very beneficial for your health, and there are a full range of facilities and services on hand, such as pools, saunas, treatments and massage. There is also a butterfly garden and quality restaurant.
