nha trang beaches
by call_me_rhia
Nha Trang beach... a decent beach - but far from the hype of a perfect beach as people rave and rant... I found the city beach quite OK, just average, nothing too stunning, and for sure it lacked the promised white sand and turqoise waters. yet it's a convenient place for a swim, as it stretches all along town.
The water becomes deep after a few steps, so this beach is only suitable for good swimmers... it also tends to get a bit crowded. Watch out for your valuables while you are in the water... occasionally they seem to disappear. Finding a great beach outside nha trang, in the cham ra area... relaxed, laid back, and with better water and great waves (bah Yai beach)

There are plenty of beauty therapists around town and all are multi skilled as in most Asian places. However I have never seen "ear cleaning" advertised anwhere else!!!
Not sure if this is a custom tip or what just found if quite funny. Any otehr members notice the samet thing???
Breathtaking scenery on the bumpy way- Chapter 1
by ExoticGal
It belongs to Cam Ranh District, not Nha Trang. We used to have to travel 60kms to get to Cam Ranh in the past, but a new road was being built from Le Hong Phong Street so that it's only about 15 kms from Nha Trang city center.
It's worth the effort to suffer the bumpy road on taxi, because the scenery is terrific! My digital cam and poor knowledge of photography can't capture it all.
Food
by Willettsworld about Boat Trip
The boat boat-trip is offered by loads of travel agents and includes visits to four islands with much singing and swimming on the way. We stopped for lunch which was very good and consisted of prawns, fish, noodles, salad, bread and spring rolls which was included in the 120,000 VND price. Drinks cost extra.
mama hahns boat trip
by cachaseiro
mama hahns boat trips are world famous.
mostly because they used to include free marihuana.
the police have stopped that now, but it's still a very nice boat trip along a very scenic coastline and very beautiful islands.
the trip includes free food and snorkelling aswell.
vietnamse redwine is free too, but tastes absolutly awful.
you might wanna invest in some cheap vietnamese beer that tastes great.
the price for the trip is around 8 us dollars for the day, including food and wine.
