What the Media Says
With budget-friendly tank rental and dive trip rates for every different type of certification, as well as liveaboard packages that might sound too good to believe, there’s a reason why Vietnam is a hotspot for both novice and experienced divers – not to mention it’s the spot where the legendary Jacques Cousteau discovered his passion for the ocean.
The rustic charm of Whale Island Resort, surrounded by emerald waters. Two hours north of Nha Trang, Whale Island is named for the whales and whale sharks that frequently visit the island to feed. There are even whale temples on the island, where fishermen pay tribute to the sea beasts. Whale Island Resort has a National Geographic dive center for world-class diving. Its 23 bamboo bungalows sit directly on the beach, shaded by coconut palms.
The island is almost completely encircled by a piece of the mainland that extends like a giant curled claw, as well as another large island Hon Lon, forming a natural amphitheatre and making it an idyll protected from the elements.
I actually go as a concept that the Vietnamese call “going up to the forest and going down to the sea”. Indeed, after my trekking to Bach Moc Luong Tu and wandering around Sapa City, it’s time to find an island to enjoy the sea. At Whale Island Resort, it truly meets all of the criteria for my favorite resort including – empty, clean, and green.
