TL;DR
The southern area and the riverside district near GO! supermarket are cheaper with nice views, but require a motorbike to reach the beach. Central beachfront is more walkable and bus-friendly.
For travelers who want beach access combined with easy bus connections, the central beachfront strip is the most practical choice — it keeps you close to transport links and the main sights.
The riverside area near the GO! supermarket is a budget-friendly option with pleasant water views. Downside: the beach is not walkable — you'll need a motorbike to get there.
The southern part of Nha Trang is another affordable option, suited for non-party travelers who have a motorbike. Beach access requires riding rather than walking.
Beach quality is roughly consistent along the entire Nha Trang coastline, so choosing a neighborhood based on infrastructure — restaurants, transport, shops — makes more sense than chasing the best beach spot.
Cam Ranh is roughly twice as expensive as Nha Trang for accommodation. If you're budget-conscious, Nha Trang offers much better value.
