How can I keep my phone and cash safe at Nha Trang Beach?

For swimming, carry your phone and a small amount of cash in a waterproof pouch, and leave your passport, bank cards, and most of your money in the hotel safe. This reduces the risk of leaving valuables on your towel at Nha Trang Beach.

If you are travelling as a couple or group, do not all go swimming at once: one person should stay with the belongings. Do not hide expensive phones in shoes, bags, or under a towel, as these are obvious places to check.

Travelers report that stolen phones can sometimes be recovered, but you should not rely on that. Before going to the beach, enable Find My iPhone or Find My Device, use a screen lock, and make sure backups are active.
