Understand

Nha Trang, a stunning bay with islands and pristine sandy beaches, has a rich history dating back to the ancient Cham Empire. While it was once just a small fishing village under Vietnamese rule, the French recognized its potential as a resort town and began its transformation. Even American soldiers during the war couldn't resist its allure and made it a favorite vacation spot. Don't be fooled by Nha Trang's perfect bathing weather, as the monsoon season from October to mid-December brings heavy sea winds and occasionally chilly temperatures. In contrast, summers draw in hordes of vacationers, making it a bit more challenging to find available hotel rooms.
