TL;DR

In Nha Trang, swimmers often recommend going early in the morning or later in the evening, when stinging in the water is less likely and the sea can be cleaner, especially at Central Beach. Light rain usually doesn’t stop people from swimming.

What the community said

In the afternoon waves pick up at the beach, making swimming uncomfortable — better to swim earlier in the day.

Evening swimming isn’t really recommended since it gets dark relatively early; the beach really comes alive early in the morning, around 4-5 am.

Even during rainy weather in Nha Trang, swimming is usually still fine. With less direct sun, it’s also easier to avoid getting sunburned.
