1. What is the most beautiful season to travel to Nha Trang?


Nha Trang is located in a tropical climate, influenced by the ocean climate, so the weather here is mild all year round, the average temperature is about 26-27 degrees Celsius, there are two seasons: the dry season (from January to August) and the rainy season (from September to December).


In the dry season, the average temperature is about 28 - 30 degrees Celsius, the sky is clear, there is light sunshine and dry weather, which is very suitable for tourism and entertainment activities. In particular, the ideal time is in the summer, from April to June. At this time, the climate is cool, sunny and the sea is clear, suitable for sea trips. However, from July to September is the most beautiful time to travel to Nha Trang because the weather at this time is gentle, not too hot, suitable for young people who want to travel and experience free exploration.

From about September onwards, Nha Trang often has light and scattered rain. From October to December, the average temperature in Nha Trang falls around 24 to 26 degrees Celsius, accompanied by cold waves. So if you are traveling at this time, you need to monitor the weather regularly so as not to be affected by your schedule. 


2. What do you need to prepare for Nha Trang tourism?


Papers, cards, and cash

You don't need to prepare too much cash, but remember to always bring an ATM card so that you can use it for more convenient and faster payments. In addition, identification documents such as: ID card/ID card, driver's license, journalist card, passport... are also things you should bring with you.


Nha Trang tourist attire

Nha Trang is a beach tourism city, so you definitely can't help but bring cool summer clothes such as: shorts, flower tops, 2-strap skirts, sedge hats, bikinis, sandals... Depending on the long or short schedule, you can prepare the most suitable outfit.


One suggestion is to plan specifically what to wear for each day and a specific number of things, avoid carrying too many things that you don't use.


Personal belongings

Too much personal belongings will make it cumbersome and difficult to move. Therefore, you can extract your personal belongings into compact jars for convenient carrying and use. In particular, cosmetics and sunscreen will be the "secret" to help you keep your skin fresh and healthy during the trip.


Technology Supplies

A power bank will be the most convenient solution, helping you comfortably use your phone to take pictures throughout the day without worrying about running out of battery. If you have a camera, you must bring it with you to have the best photos.
