Is it acceptable to enter cafes and other public places in Nha Trang wearing swimwear after the beach?

In mid-July 2026 a participant agreed that it is better to cover up before entering venues after the beach, with a caveat: if you are not wearing only a swimsuit, you may get no comment — or you may get a remark or a disapproving look. The reaction depends on the specific place and the people around.

In early July 2026 a participant clarified that swim briefs themselves are not the issue: the point is to put something on over them when entering a public venue. Her reasoning was that at home people do not sit in a cafe in their underwear either, and she personally dislikes it when others do.

In late June 2026 a traveler worried because he sometimes forgets his swim shorts and swims in regular swim briefs. In early July a participant stressed that nobody objects to swim briefs on the beach — the question only comes up when entering cafes and other public places.
