Attractions
- Long Beach
The west-coast sand in front of the main resort strip.

The long city beach. Swim in the drier months, and only when the flags say the water is open. The restaurants and bars are on the streets just inland, not in the shallows.
- Sao Beach
A paler, curved beach in the southeast. Day visit from Long Beach.
- An Bang Beach
The nearest proper beach. Go in the morning in the hot months.
- Nha Trang Beach
The city sand. Swim inside flagged areas.
- Po Nagar Towers
Cham towers on a hill north of the beach, still an active place of worship.
- Red dunes
A sand slope above a fishing village. Go late in the day.
- White dunes
A larger dune field farther east. Combine with a lake if the tour is honest about the driving time.
