Private Island Fishing & Snorkeling Tour in Nha Trang Bay
Explore Nha Trang Bay by private speedboat: snorkel clear reefs around Hòn Mun and Mot Island, try light fishing, and enjoy a seaside lunch at Con Se Tre. This half-day tour blends accessible underwater encounters with hands-on coastal culture.
The Experience
Before You Go
Start early for calmer seas
Morning departures usually mean smoother water, better visibility for snorkeling, and fewer boats around popular sites.
Bring reef-safe sunscreen
Chemical-free sunscreen protects coral and keeps skin from burning during extended sun exposure on the water.
Pack a dry bag and waterproof phone case
Speedboat rides and snorkeling stops make spills likely; a dry bag keeps valuables safe and dry.
Consider motion-sickness prevention
If you’re sensitive to boat movement, take medication or use acupressure bands before departure.
