Nha Trang
Hon Mun is a famous place for scuba diving enthusiasts. Visitors can dive down to admire the beauty of more than 300 species of coral and thousands of fish species living there. When diving here, visitors will be fascinated by the ecosystem, schools of fish swimming around the coral reefs like a picture of a brilliant flower forest.
If you do not like diving, you can watch the corals by glass-bottom boat in Yen Island - Hon Noi. However, the feeling of sitting on a boat watching the ocean is not as good as diving deep into the sea, being able to touch the fish and corals with your own hands, which is an extremely interesting feeling.

Not as deep as Hon Mun, but at Monkey Island, the sea water is very clear and there are beautiful coral reefs, which are a shelter for many species of sea fish. Monkey Island is located in Nha Phu lagoon, on the map called Hon Lao, but because there are up to 1,200 monkeys on the island, people often call it Monkey Island.
Visitors can climb the rocks, follow the small path to the beach and from the beach, wade out with the guide until the water reaches their shoulders and then dive. The sea water is so clear that with just a pair of goggles and face down in the water, you can see colorful coral reefs and schools of fish swimming around.

Son Tra Peninsula is worthy of being a privilege bestowed by nature with a diverse and rich nature reserve, a unique vegetation with many rare wild animals. Diving deep into the water, beauty appears everywhere, from the blue of the water, patches of orange, green and purple. Visitors can also hear the crackling sound of healthy and pristine coral reefs. This place is not only home to corals with strange shapes such as table tops, deer horns but also a habitat for many small fish species.
Soaking in the clear blue water, watching coral reefs of all shapes and colors, with many species of ornamental fish swimming around before your eyes is a wonderful experience for visitors who come here.
Phu Quoc Pearl Island

The area is still quite pristine, visitors can go diving in the northwest area of the island or around the small islands in the south.
The best time to dive in Vietnam is from May to July, when the sea is calm and very clear, with visibility of about 20 - 30m. The period from November to February every year is the season when few people dive because of strong winds and rough seas.
