Its fine beach, island and mountain views, fresh seafood and gentle sea breezes have endeared Nha Trang to many a Vietnam Royal Tourism traveller. We spend time cruising the waters of the South China Sea, stopping to swim from our boat and visit an island fishing village. Whether eating on board, in the spectacularly located villas of the former emperor Bao Dai, or in one of our favourite barbeque restaurants, don’t miss the local seafood.
Nha Trang’s charms lie in its seaside surrounds, but you might like to take a cyclo ride along the beachfront boulevarde to the city’s market, and on to the ancient Cham towers of Po Nagar with their views over the colourful fishing fleet to the sea. Or if sport takes your fancy, why not join the locals as they gather on the beach in the evening for a friendly game of football.
The city is indisputably beautiful, bordered by mountains, with the beach tracing an impressive long swoop along a bay dotted with islands. Topiary and modern sculpture dot the immaculately manicured foreshore. Nha Trang offers plenty to keep tourists occupied - from island-hopping boat trips and scuba diving, to mudbaths and historic sites. But the main attraction for most visitors is lounging around on deckchairs at a beach front bar and drinking cocktails in comfort.
