Nha Trang Beach

Nha Trang beach Nha Trang - Khanh Hoa, a university town at the mouth of a beautiful bay with a huge sweeping beach, is possibly one of my favourite places in Vietnam - one day I plan to live there!

As a beach destination it takes some beating, with delicious restaurants, great bars, beautiful diving and crystal clear water. There are boat trips out to the islands for divers and non-divers alike, snorkelling and fishing trips and if its a little chilly you can go and bathe in the hot springs.

More recently there has been an explosion in watersports, with catamarans, jet skis and paragliding available for hire on the beach, as well as kayaks, windsurfers and bodyboards.

Yet unlike other beach destinations in Vietnam it offers a lot more - with a popular university as well as training for Vietnam's Navy the town has a distinct character of its own.

It's a great place to hire a bike and cruise up and down the boulevard that lines the seafront on a bright breezy day - its very popular with the students in the evenings too!

There are so many wild idyllic beaches in Nha Trang that you will find amongst them a good selection on which to enjoy your holiday:
