TL;DR
Top Nha Trang highlights include Po Nagar Towers, the giant Buddha statue, Vinpearl islands, and day passes at Amiana or Costa Bella Resort. Nearby day trips to Da Lat, Phan Rang, and Monkey Island are also popular.
The Stone Garden near Po Nagar Towers comes highly recommended by visitors. It's easy to combine with a visit to the towers since they're close to each other.
Hon Tam Island is a popular destination frequently recommended by travelers visiting Nha Trang.
A day pass at Amiana Resort or Costa Bella in Nha Trang is a great option for beach access with luxury resort facilities without booking a full stay.
Day trips to Da Lat (a cool mountain city) and Phan Rang (known for vineyards and Cham towers) are worth adding to your itinerary. Avoid stacking too many excursions back-to-back to prevent fatigue.
Monkey Island (Hon Lao) is a unique attraction, though visitors should be cautious as the monkeys can be aggressive.
Po Nagar Towers are the main historical landmark in Nha Trang — ancient Cham towers on a hill overlooking the river, included in most city sightseeing routes.
Vega City mall with its beach area is a popular spot for shopping and relaxing by the water. There are also other shopping centres worth visiting in the city.
Vinpearl Land amusement and water park is one of Nha Trang's top attractions — many visitors find one day isn't enough and return for a second visit.
Nha Trang's Korean Quarter, city park, pagodas, spas, and massage parlours make it a well-rounded destination. Ten days can feel too short for active travellers who want to see everything.
