🚐 Transfer and departure to the port

Important: the transfer is paid separately and depends on your area of stay.
🛥 Boat trip to Mun Island
The trip by sea takes about 1 hour. You sail through a scenic bay and reach the Hon Mun marine reserve, known for its clear water and good visibility.
🧑🏫 Briefing and equipment preparation
Before the dives, your instructor explains the safety rules and shows you how to breathe, control buoyancy and use the mask, regulator and buoyancy vest. For beginners, everything is calm and step by step.
🤿 First dive (30–50 minutes)
The first dive is an adaptation dive at a comfortable depth. Underwater you will see corals, tropical fish, starfish and bright reefs. Your instructor stays close and helps you feel confident.
🍍 Coffee break and rest on board
After the first dive, you relax on the boat. We serve fresh fruit, drinks and a light snack, and your instructor gives you tips before the second dive.
🤿 Second dive (30–50 minutes)
The second dive is usually more eventful. You may see clownfish, sea urchins, sea cucumbers and, if you're lucky, octopus and cuttlefish. For certified divers, the depth is chosen to match their level.
🍲 Lunch on board
After the dives, we serve a Vietnamese lunch. It's time to recover, talk about the experience and simply enjoy the sea.
🚐 Return to the port and to your hotel
The boat returns to the port of Nha Trang, and then you travel back to your hotel. The total duration of the program is about 8 hours.

I want to recommend @Ksenia_BigTravelChat We booked a speedboat to the southern islands as a private trip for our group. Everything was well organized, and Ksenia replies very fast! The boat was good and clean. On board we had water and a box of ice to chill our wine and prosecco. The staff were polite, and best of all, they took us to the islands before anyone else arrived, so we had time for lots of photos (once the main group tours arrive, that's impossible because of the crowds). We had our own drone and flew it plenty, but we also used the drone filming included in the price, and I got the finished photos right away via AirDrop. Thank you, Ksenia, for organizing a wonderful island trip! 🙏🏼

Hello Ksenia! We were delighted with the tour and loved everything about it, especially the guide, a wonderful man. We were also very happy that you added the Coconut Prison, because it wasn't in our program at first and we really wanted to go. One of the girls in our group was set on it. It was great that they let us taste everything instead of just talking about it. We tried fish sauce there and some kind of alcohol too. In short, we're delighted with you. We have another tour with you coming up: we booked a yacht, well, a boat, for the 23rd. So far everything is great. Thank you for Mikhail too, he helped us a lot. We've been getting around everywhere on his ticket for several days now.

5 Islands tour: at the second stop you get photo and video shooting, which is included in the price. You can rent flowing dresses on site, since the photos are taken on a swing. You can bring your own outfit to save time on changing. The beaches were clean, there were no waves, and there were no extra stops at random shops with pressure to buy something. Our guides were Igor and Marina, so it was easy to ask for any extra information. Some toilets were paid: 10 VND, showers 20 VND, so bring small change. Lunch was filling and Vietnamese.

Safari + Star Beach: at the zoo we added a buggy for an extra 100 VND per person, so we didn't have to walk in the heat and could see everything. There was a great bird show, very interesting animal areas, a nicely designed park and plenty of shade. Lunch was very tasty, and you can try the freshest oysters and sea urchins there for 50-60 VND each. I recommend doing it this way, because elsewhere it's unclear when they were caught. The road to Star Beach is quite rough, so I don't recommend going on your own: the road is under repair, and riding a bike there in the dark takes superhuman driving skills. Our guides were Maria and Anh. Maria knows a lot about life in Vietnam, and Anh is a Vietnamese man who speaks good Russian because he studied in Ufa. They are great to talk to and told us about local traditions, where to buy things and plenty of other useful information.

How to prepare for your diving tour in Nha Trang
📌 Comfortable shoes
It can get wet on the boat, so pack closed-toe shoes with a non-slip sole. They are comfortable on deck and safe for getting in and out of the water.
🩱 Swimwear and towel
Bring a swimsuit or swim trunks and a towel so you can change comfortably after diving. Dry spare clothes are also handy for the trip back.
🧢 Hat or cap
The sun feels stronger on the water, especially during the crossing to Hon Mun. Bring a cap or sun hat to enjoy the day on deck.
🧴 Sunscreen
You will be outdoors before and after your dives, so bring sunscreen. Choose a water-resistant SPF 30–50 so it lasts longer.
💧 Drinking water
Drinks and a coffee break are provided on board, but you lose water quickly in the heat. Bring an extra water bottle, especially if you dehydrate easily.
💰 Cash
Bring cash for the transfer to the port (which is not included), as well as for tips and small personal expenses. Small notes are easiest for paying.
📱 A charged phone
Your phone is useful for photos on the boat and for staying in touch with the organiser. A waterproof phone pouch keeps splashes and wet hands from being a worry.
