TL;DR
Yes, the main city beach in Nha Trang is usually packed, but you can head to the paid Amiana beach (about 800,000 VND per person) for clearer water, though it also fills up and sunbeds go fast.
Crowds are common at pretty much any popular beach destination, not just Nha Trang — if you want zero crowds, you'd need to go somewhere like the Maldives, Seychelles, or Cambodia.
The paid Amiana beach costs about 800,000 VND per person; it's also crowded with sunbeds mostly taken, there's some trash in the water, and few fish compared to places like Egypt.
Climbing the rocks near Bao Dai (Baho) area leaves you sore, but the water there is clearer than at the central city beach; banana boat rides are available for extra fun.
Near the Hyatt hotel there's decent food: pizza plus breaded chicken with a drink cost about 1000 RUB (roughly $11) for two, and beer (including non-alcoholic) is sold at the nearby MoonMilk shop to take away.
