TL;DR
The easiest place to find cigarettes and e-cigarettes in Nha Trang is the city center, especially around the night market, where street vendors commonly sell them. If you are staying farther out, travelers suggest taking a taxi into the center.
Additional detail: throughout the first (tourist) district, vendors sell from street stalls — offering both regular cigarettes (including counterfeit ones) and disposable e-cigarettes.
Price detail: street vendors ('cigarette grannies') in the tourist area sell disposable e-cigarettes rated for 50,000 puffs for about 250,000 VND.
Along tourist streets and the beachside first line, women vendors on bicycles with baskets sell cigarettes, heated-tobacco sticks, vapes, and snus. Chapman is available, and bargaining over the price may be possible.
Regular and e-cigarettes are also sold openly at intersections along Nha Trang’s beachfront/coastal road, offering an alternative to looking near the night market.
The latest advice is that cigarettes are commonly sold by older street vendors, and many of them also carry heated-tobacco or e-cigarette devices similar to IQOS. The best place to look is central Nha Trang.
Another practical tip is to take a taxi to the city center, where many street vendors sell both regular cigarettes and e-cigarettes. This is useful if you cannot find them near your hotel.
The most specific location mentioned is the area around the night market in central Nha Trang. Street sellers with cigarettes are regularly seen there, so travelers often recommend taking a taxi to that area.
