The boat rocks away from Nha Trang’s concrete shoreline and the city’s hum fades; salt and diesel mix in the air as you watch Hon Mun’s dark outline grow nearer. Onboard, the dive master demonstrates basic skills while the bay opens—clear water, scattered bommies and patrolling reef fish that seem to size you up before you breach the surface.

Bring motion-sickness remedies
Boat rides can be 20–40 minutes and choppy in wind; take seasickness meds before boarding if you’re prone to nausea.
Protect the reef
Use reef-safe sunscreen and never touch or stand on coral—boots and gloves increase damage risk.
Confirm pickup details
Hotels are collected early (around 07:00–07:30); confirm your pickup point and allow extra time for port formalities.
Hydrate and eat lightly
Eat a light breakfast and drink water before boarding; heavy meals can worsen seasickness and dehydration under sun.
Shorty wetsuit or rash guard
Keeps you warm during dives and protects against sunburn and minor scrapes.
