Sergey: "It is better to spend a beach vacation away from the center of the resort. The beaches on the outskirts of Nha Trang are much cleaner than in the center. The sea is just super, warm, clean, with practically no waves."

Where to relax in Vietnam in July
Choosing a holiday destination in Vietnam in July 2021 depends on what you want to get out of your trip. Any part of Vietnam is suitable for sightseeing tourism. For a great beach holiday, we recommend Da Nang and Hoi An. The weather there is more stable and there is less rain.
In Nha Trang, in addition to swimming in the sea and water sports, you can go diving. For a vacation in Vietnam with children in July, Dalat is good. The mountain resort is surrounded by lush coniferous forests and is less hot.
Experienced and novice surfers like to relax in Mui Ne, Phan Thiet and Vung Tau in summer. On Phu Quoc Island, the weather is not bad, it does not rain every day, but there are often storms. Find out when to relax in Fukuoka.
We advise you to choose a hotel near the sea, where it is easier to breathe in the heat. Be sure to stay in an air-conditioned room. One fan during the rainy season is not enough!

How to dress for the weather
In July, the weather in Vietnam is unpredictable. During monsoons, it can rain unexpectedly, so bring an umbrella or raincoat with you. Warm clothes are not required in tropical heat. In the evening, it is comfortable to walk by the sea in light outfits.
In Dalat, in the evenings, the thermometer drops to +16 ... + 17 ° С. Sweater and windbreaker will not be superfluous!
Tatyana: "We went to Nha Trang for three years in a row in late July and early August. Despite the weather forecast, which promised daily thunderstorms, they did not use raincoats. In the evening, there is high humidity, warmth, you can constantly wear T-shirts and shorts."
Should I go to Vietnam in July?
The bonuses of the rainy season are obvious - tour operators offer the lowest prices for tours and special offers for outdoor activities. In the middle of summer, hotel prices go down.
To enjoy your trip to Vietnam in July 2021, choose the right resort. For a comfortable rest by the sea, the center of the country is more suitable - Nha Trang, Danang, Hoi An. Families with babies, elderly tourists and everyone who suffers from heart, vascular and respiratory diseases are advised to live in the mountain resorts of Vietnam.
The disadvantage of resting in the wet season is mosquitoes. The annoying insects are especially annoying for tourists in the evenings. Don't forget to put repellents and bite cream in your luggage!
