Tauchend
Nha Trang ist eine kleine Großstadt mit Strand und ein paar Inseln. Es scheint ein typisch vietnamesischer Urlaubsort zu sein, will sagen, es gibt viele einheimische Touristen. Der Stadtstrand gefiel mir persönlich nicht so, die vor gelagerten Inseln ...

Letting our hair down in Nha Trang
... for a swim any time soon, as around ten people a year die there due to the strong currents. We spent our second day in Nha Trang walking for miles around the city and along the beach. Despite the cloudy skys, it was so much warmer than Hue and we were ...

Behaving like a fish
Nha Trang is a typical, bigger beach resort. The wide, sandy beach is strewn with rental beach chairs and umbrellas. Hawkers sell fruit and books and there is far more nightlife than Mui Ne. I've wanted to try scuba diving for some time now and entered ...
Gold Coast- Same Same but different
Arriving early morning in Nha Trang I was absolutely knackered from a rough sleeper bus journey. Nha Trang has a beautiful stretch of beach but far too touristy for me. It did remind me of the Gold Coast in all its high rises and western ways. Took to ...
Dipping a toe in the South China Sea
Quick update from Nha Trang, as I'm not going to be here long. It's actually a great town, I can see the attraction here. Fab beach! I'd been missing the sea, because although I've been making my way down the coast, the towns I've stayed ...

Last Nha Trang Day
Last day in Nha Trang - planned a lazy beach day only to wake up to a full misty rain - lovely but certainly not beachy. Packed all my stuff and decided it was time to downsize, especially since I was headed to Hoi An, shopping capital of the world ...

Fun in Nha Trang
