Tours and other things to do

There are many tours and trips to go on in and around beautiful Nha Trang. We have listed some of the main ones below for your information. For most of these we can usually arrange for you to be picked up and dropped back at our hotel.

Island Hopping Boat Trips

There are several companies based here that offer similar full day boat trips that visit several of the nearby islands. These trips usually include visiting an aquarium, snorkeling, on board live entertainment, floating bar and buffet lunch.

Vinpearl

Spend a day at the nearby Vinpearl island. One entrance fee includes, 9 minute cable car journey to Vinpearl land, Underwater World (aquarium), Water Park complete with many exciting water slides and wave pool, Amusement Park with roller coaster, pirate ship, bumper cars, 4D cinema and many modern arcade machines. All included in the one price, currently 300,000 dong. We recommend you watch the once daily Amphitheatre musical fountain and laser show which starts at 7pm. There is also a great beach along side the Water Park. So there is plenty to do to keep you busy for a whole day.

Wonderpark

15km  south of central Nha Trang is Wonderpark. Entrance fee 20,ooo dong, unlike Vinpearl you pay for everything individually. Catch an electric car to the beach for 10,000 dong or walk (quite a long walk) or hire a bicycle or tandem bicycle for 20,000 dong for 2 hours. The beach is beautiful and great for swimming and relaxing on the sun loungers (20,000 dong). Actually if there has been a storm recently then lots of rubbish is often washed ashore along Nha Trang beach that has been washed out of the river into the bay. The beach at Wonderpark is much further away from the river and is quite sheltered from it also and from my visit recent there under such conditions found this beach unaffected by the rubbish. They have a nice beach side restaurant there too and a good shower block. In winter season it closes at 5pm. Its also possible to stay there at the not so cheap Diamond Bay Resort.

Hot Springs

The Thap Ba Hot Springs is a great place to visit. Its main pool is a scorching 38 degrees centigrade. Even if its raining its still worth going. They also have mud baths and a thermal waterfall.

Scuba Diving

Nha Trang is Vietnam's premier scuba diving location. We can arrange half day (morning) 2 certified boat dives with lunch included for US$35. You can also do an Intro dive for the same price or just snorkel with lunch for US$15. PADI dive courses can also be done here, ask us for further details.

Sailing | Parasailing | Windsurfing | Kitesurfing and more water sports

There are many water sport activities nearby provided by Mana Mana located adjacent the Louisiane Brewhouse.  If you want to learn to sail, they have catamaran sailing which is a fun and easy way to learn.

The Beach

Our coarse the main reason people come to Nha Trang is for the beautiful bay and long sweeping golden sand beach. Enjoy a bit of luxury and idol the day away on a sun lounger either on the beach or beside the swimming pool at the Louisiane Brewhouse. Note that they do charge 25,000 dong for use of a soft sun lounger. The Sailing Club also have sun loungers but don't have a swimming pool.

If hiring a motorbike you might wish to visit Bai Dai beach which is about 20km south of Nha Trang.
