Sea Kayaking@Halong Bay

by muddybok

Sea kayaking at Halong Bay is so different from all the canoe & kayak session that I ever did. It is especially exciting (& challenging) when you are teaming up with someone who is not so well in kayaking.It is such a wonderful experience to paddle between so many strange formations of islets.

Badmington

by SirRichard

Badmington is a very popular sport in Vietnam. You can see people playing to it in every park in the evenings mainly.There is another kind of badmington they play with the feet. It's a pile of small rubber discs with feather on top that they pass to one another with the feet only. They stand in circle, 4 or 5 persons, and the one who lets the "ball" fall looses.

Diving in Nha Trang

by elbe

The beach of Nha Trang seems like paradise if you’ve been on the road in an bus for several days: White sand, blue water, green palms and above that a blue, sunny sky. Perfect to go underwater :-) At the PADI 5 Star Dive Centre “Rainbow Divers” you’ve the possibility to see the Chinese Sea from another side. Unfortunately I haven’t had the time to dive but I talked to an instructor who seemed to be very serious and of course PADI is a name around the world (I also learned diving there) and so you should be in good hands. But I have to say that I’ve done a walk on the beach as there was low tide. And I saw a lot of garbage (which is completely gone when there’s high tide) and a cadaver of a dog who has been skinned. So probably you should have good nerves if you want to dive there :-)A daily boat trip with min. two divers: $ 50beach dive (with buddy): $ 25beach dive (with divemaster): $...

Footbal in Sapa!

by chefgrad

When in Sapa, try to watch a soccer game, the local men play, at the field near the Cathedral. If you arrive early enough you'll definatly be asked to join! I was, but my poor soccer skills held me back from it. (Oh the shame!) :) Your feet!
