Description:
Nha Trang has developed into Viet Nam's best seaside resort. It has long been known to have the best weather in Viet Nam. Nha Trang also has plenty to keep scuba divers entertained. During the five days I spent diving there, the sea was flat calm each morning, and apparently rarely gets choppy. A pleasant 30 minute cruise to the dive sites provides a chance to admire the rolling forest-covered hills around Nha Trang town and to enjoy the overwater big blue of a sparkling sea and vast clear sky under a progressively hotter sun.
