TL;DR

The main city beach in Nha Trang often has stinging plankton and jellyfish in late June-July, forcing swimmers out after 10-15 minutes. Hon Tam (Hon Tom) island nearby has clean, cool water, white sand, and no jellyfish or sea urchins.

In the water off the main beach you can accidentally touch a starfish or brush against shrimp-like stinging creatures — kids may spot fish underwater while adults end up staying on shore.

During plankton season at Nha Trang's main beach you can usually stay in the water only about 15 minutes before your skin starts stinging and you have to get out.
