TL;DR
January has the fewest tourists in Nha Trang, but you trade that for less predictable weather; at other times, waves of Chinese and Korean tour groups can make things crowded during certain periods.
During certain periods, tourist numbers spike sharply due to large groups from China and Korea, while the number of Russian-speaking tourists drops noticeably. In these months, street touts aggressively approach anyone who looks untanned to sell tours.
One option is a day trip to a small fishing village near Nha Trang where tourism is just starting to develop — there's almost no infrastructure, but the scenery is beautiful and it's largely tourist-free.
If your goal is to avoid crowds, plan your trip for January. Just keep in mind that fewer tourists in this period comes with less stable, less beach-friendly weather.
