4D3N : Dive Trip At Vietnam,Nha Trang Marine Park
The many off-shore islands enhance the serenity of the coastal waters and make for a great day out.
Introduction
Nha Trang Bay boasts 12,000 hectares of reef-filled waters known as Hon Mun Marine Protected Area. The majority of diving and snorkelling in Nha Trang is done here, and its shallow waters are one of the best places for beginners to learn how to dive in Vietnam.
During the best diving months of April to October – especially during the optimal months of July to August – you can expect fair visibility and a wide variety of small colourful tropical fish (butterfly, box, moray eels, pufferfish) as well as beautiful coral.
Advanced divers may be disappointed as there are no coveted creatures and features like reef sharks, turtles or wrecks but for certified divers, there is a cave and swim-through tunnels at Octopus Rock off Hon Rom.
Some of the islands are uninhabited, whilst others are home to several small fishing villages. Due to the clarity of the water and the rich tropical sea life, the area is ideal for diving, swimming & snorkelling.
Do allow one week time for processing, booking of accommodation and dive trip.
