TL;DR
Cam Ranh Airport is about 35-40 km from central Nha Trang; a metered taxi (Mai Linh/Vinasun) costs roughly 350,000–450,000 VND, or you can prebook a shared transfer for around 250,000–300,000 VND per person. There's only one terminal, with taxis right outside arrivals.
Taxis at Cam Ranh Airport wait right outside the arrivals hall — there's no need to look for a separate terminal or pre-arrange pickup; just show the driver your hotel address written in Vietnamese (best to print it beforehand).
A taxi ride from Cam Ranh Airport to central Nha Trang (about 35-40 km) costs around 350,000–450,000 VND on the meter, taking roughly 40-50 minutes.
Reliable taxi companies at the airport are Mai Linh (green cars) and Vinasun (white cars) — they use honest meters, no need to negotiate a price beforehand.
As an alternative to a taxi, a shared shuttle van drops you at your hotel for about 250,000–300,000 VND per person if booked in advance through your hotel or a travel agency.
For longer trips further inland (e.g. toward the Cambodian border) from Nha Trang, it's easier to arrange a private driver with a car or motorbike than to find scheduled transport — these trips are typically organized informally, with payment on completion.
