NHA TRANG

NHA TRANG

Nha Trang is a seaside town, also the capital city of Khanh Hoa Province – on the South Central Coast of Vietnam. With its miles of beautiful turquoise coastlines and nearly 20 islands, Nha Trang has it all, either for a relaxing trip or an adventurous journey. Beach sports of all kinds, scuba diving and snorkeling are enjoyable past-times here. With its clear-aqua ocean, colorful coral reefs and very moderate climate all year round, this beach town is the quintessential Vietnamese summer vacation spot.

Go for a rugged hike at Ba Ho Waterfalls. Head to Tran Phu Bridge for a picturesque view of fishing boats against a backdrop of hills and a glowing sunset. Check out the local fishing village at Doc Let and hire a boat to snorkel the archipelago. Wander the completely deserted wild beaches south of Cam Ranh and motorbike the Vinh Hy - Bien Tien pass. It’s possible to still find paradise just outside this attractive city.

Climate: Nha Trang does have a rainy season, with risk of typhoon from October until January. February to September is dry season. July and August is school holidays and peak season, with many Vietnamese families exploring their own country.

Best time to visit:

The best time to visit Nha Trang would be from February till April, when temperature is kept moderate at around 26-270C. The months between June and August are also good time to visit Nha Trang; however, the temperature and humidity begin to rise up, so it will make you feel hotter and uncomfortable. If you don’t mind the heat and humidity, it won’t be a serious problem that can ruin your holiday.

Getting there:

Nha Trang is serviced by Cam Ranh International Airport, 30 kilometers south of the city. It takes 50 minutes to reach the city from the airport along a good scenic coastal road. There are daily flights to major cities in Vietnam, as well as international and charter flights.

BEFORE YOU GO

Vietnam has a tropical monsoon climate, dominated by the south or southwesterly monsoon from May to September and the northeast monsoon from October to April. The southern summer monsoon brings rain to the two deltas and west-facing slopes, while the cold winter monsoon picks up moisture over the Gulf of Tonkin and dumps it along the central coast and the eastern edge of the central highlands. Within this basic pattern there are marked differences according to altitude and latitude; temperatures in the south remain equable all year round, while the north experiences distinct seasonal variations.

ON YOUR TOUR

In the past few years Vietnamese food has become more and more popular around the world. Food lovers may have tried the two best known Vietnamese dishes – spring rolls and bread rolls. Rice, noodles, fresh vegetable and herbs all play big roles in Vietnamese food, making it one of the healthiest cuisines in the world.

In Vietnam you’ll discover one unmistakable fact: Vietnamese people love noodles. They eat them every day, sometimes for every meal. Vietnamese noodles are made from a few basic ingredients, the most common being rice, wheat and mung beans, but a whole sub-cuisine is built on these basics.
