Nha Trang makes the case for Vietnam’s most complete beach town.

The travel vlogging channel DeathByVlog lands in Nha Trang, the coastal resort city in Khanh Hoa Province, to test whether it deserves the title of Vietnam’s best beach. Their focus is Tran Phu Beach, the crescent-shaped stretch of white sand curling along Nha Trang Bay, along with the walking promenade that turns into the city’s nightlife strip after dark. It’s a spot that pulls in both Vietnamese vacationers and a heavy contingent of Russian tourists, and the vlog sets out to show exactly why.

• Tran Phu Beach’s white sand and clear water hold up despite the heavy tourist volume that runs along the shoreline.
• Louisiane Brewhouse, a beachfront microbrewery on Tran Phu Street, rents two oceanfront lounge chairs for $3 total for the entire day.
• Nha Trang sits roughly a one-hour flight from Ho Chi Minh City, making it one of the more accessible beach getaways in the country.

A Coastline That Holds Up Under Pressure

Nha Trang isn’t a quiet fishing town — it’s a full-scale resort city, and the vlog makes clear that Tran Phu Beach absorbs a serious volume of visitors without looking trashed. The water stays crystal clear and the sand stays clean, a detail the hosts call out directly as a pleasant surprise given how packed the shoreline gets. It’s the kind of contrast that separates a genuinely clear swimming spot from the murkier water you’d expect at a beach carrying this much foot traffic.

The bay itself curves in a wide crescent, giving the beach room to spread out even at peak hours. That geography, paired with the upkeep, is a big part of why Nha Trang draws repeat visits from both Vietnamese tourists and Russian travelers rather than a single tourist season crowd.

Louisiane Brewhouse and the $3 Beach Chair

The first real stop in the video is Louisiane Brewhouse, an established microbrewery and restaurant sitting directly on Tran Phu Street. The hosts rent two oceanfront lounge chairs for the whole day and settle in with the venue’s craft beers, treating it as the baseline for how cheap a beach day in Nha Trang can actually be.

Two beachside lounge chairs, rented for the entire day, for $3 total.

That price point is central to the vlog’s argument — Nha Trang delivers a setup that feels closer to a European beach resort, right down to the beer and the loungers, at a fraction of what that experience would cost on the Amalfi Coast or somewhere like Positano.

Walking Street After Dark

Once the sun goes down, the action shifts a few blocks inland to Nha Trang’s walking street, roughly three blocks packed with bars, restaurants, and nightlife running parallel to the beach. It’s the part of the city that explains why Nha Trang functions as a genuine party town and not just a daytime beach stop, with the same mix of domestic tourists and Russian visitors carrying over from the sand into the evening crowds.

The density of the strip is the point — hotels, bars, and restaurants stacked within easy walking distance of the water, giving visitors a full night out without needing a taxi or a plan.

Getting There and Staying Put

Access is a big part of Nha Trang’s pitch. It’s about a one-hour flight from Ho Chi Minh City, which makes it an easy weekend trip for Saigon-based travelers and a manageable add-on for anyone already touring Vietnam’s beach towns near the south-central coast. The hosts base themselves at the Nagar Hotel, two blocks from the beach, paying $50 a night for a room with a balcony, free breakfast, and access to an infinity pool where they cool off between beach sessions.

For anyone pricing out a similar trip, the numbers from this vlog are about as specific as it gets: $50 a night for an oceanfront-adjacent room with breakfast included, $3 for a full day of beach chairs and beer, and a flight from Ho Chi Minh City short enough to fit into a long weekend.
