Breathtaking Mun Island Snorkel: 6-Hour Group Marine Adventure

The tour guide was nice and friendly. The 2nd island was definitely the highlight of the day, much cleaner water and most fish.

The sea life is just about all dead, they have no respect for the little sea life that is left & probably will be none within a yr. The water was of average clarity.The lunch was nice & the guide did a great job, think he's name was 'te'

Everything was amazing) Funny guide, bus, boat, food, drinks and fruit snacks! Everything was prepared nicely. Highly recommend!

The tour experience overall was okay. We got picked up at our hotel with a small bus. With about 10 other people we headed towards the port. We were already excited that the tour was really a „small group tour“. Then we arrived at the port and got on board with people from another small bus. With about 25 people we headed towards the first island for snorkeling. So, it was not really a small group anymore. The snorkeling equipment is really good! At the island also other boats arrived and about 100 tourists (!) entered the waters. The corals at the first island were already dead (obviously), which makes a lot of sense when everyday hundreds of tourists and several boats come here and enter the area without any further instructions. „Don’t touch or stand on the corals!“ - nope, that was not said once.. My highlight / lowlight was that several people couldn’t even swim! They were packed into swimming vests and then they entered the water so they could still ‚enjoy‘ the snorkeling. (I mean: what the…?!). We continued our trip to our second spot, Mun Island. Again, several other boats arrived together with us and ~100 tourists were allowed to enter the water in a marked area. This time there was more sea life. After the second spot we had lunch on boat, which was pretty good actually. At the last stop only our boat stopped and we could snorkel in the open sea and see many corals, fish, sea snakes (harmless ones), etc. In between the stops the guides also offered scuba diving and para sailing, which could be booked additionally. Overall, the snorkeling experience itself was pretty cool, especially for people who have never snorkelled before. Also, the guides are pretty chill and was to get along with. But it’s not a small group tour and the way ‚wild tourists‘ are unleashed on marine life is questionable. We shouldn't be surprised if in a few years all the coral reefs are as dead as the first one we saw, when there is absolutely no instructions on what to do and not to do.

The guide was very nice, beautiful corals and fish, they gave us good equipment, lunch was ok. The problem was that it took us pto places with lots of tourists, we had to wait for a while after we got to the harbor and wait a lot for our pick up after. This is not a speed boat! It’s a very slow boat, it took a long time to get from island to island, we got sea sick and as i saw few other passengers as well

This was one of the typical ‘wooden’ boat slow tours. Our boat has 16 on it including us. The host, Lam, was pleasant enough and looked after us. We were looking forward to enjoying what we’d read was the ‘aquarium of Vietnam’ but the snorkelling was average really. There were three sites. The first was the poorest, second best for number of fish but poor visibility and third was best for visibility but not a lot to see. (Obviously not the fault of the tour if not a lot of fish about…). It was sad to see whilst sailing just how much litter is washing up on Vietnam’s shores. There was a lovely meal provided onboard (much better than the mass eating at fish farm some other tours offer) and a fruit platter after the 3rd site. Overall it’s a decent tour and well priced for 5 hours. Pick up and drop off at your hotel is a bonus.

Good snorkling tour. The guide, Mr Ba was very funny and nice, with focus on our safety and well being. Unfortunately, the visibility was a bit unclear in the water, but I did see a lot of fish.

We were collected from our hotel by our guide at 9:15am for air conditioned bus ride to the port. Our group of 25 who had chosen English language guide were from a mix of nationalities including American, Japanese and South Korean. It was quite chaotic at the port with several boats trying to dock and guides, many dressed in matching company T shirts shepherding their newly collected groups onto the correct boats. The boats were sturdy slightly rustic wooden vessels made in a traditional style but well designed for these tours. We cruised out of harbour in a melee of wooden tour boats, traditional fishing boats and tourist speed boats. But soon the boats separated out with the three from our company travelling together. It seems that the different companies have agreed to visit the reefs in different sequence to reduce overcrowding. We passed through fishing boat moorings and some floating rafts associated with the seafood industry and then past a couple of tourist spa and holiday camp islands and after 45 minutes reached our first snorkeling spot where we had an hour of snorkeling giving us opportunity to get used to our equipment and to see a good number of colourful fish and a small amount of slightly degraded coral. There was also an option of paras ending at additional cost. The snorkeling equipment was of very good quality and we were able to free dive without getting water in the pipe. Less confident swimmers were encouraged to use life jackets and to stay on the surface. After a further 30 minutes on board we arrived at a beach. There was very little coral here but myriad fish of many colours and sizes. We spent a further hour in the water here swimming and diving amongst them. We found a couple of long thin trumpet fish and some black sea urchins with very long spines and many black and white fish. When we boarded the boat the seating rows had been converted into a table and was laid with a cloth and a delightful seafood buffet including fresh tuna, prawns, spring rolls, rice and noodles. Forty-five minutes later we arrived at our final location off a third island. The water was deeper here with less fish but still a good number alongside starfish and an eel. The highlight was the coral which the children and I were able to dive down to examine more closely.

An incredible day trip to multiple snorkeling sites around Nha Trang waters. Our guide “T” was efficient and organised and made the experience so much better. I let the company know ahead of time that we required one vegan meal and they provided effortlessly. The snorkeling was amazing! I’ve been to Bali and Koh Rong and the fish varieties here were outstanding. The lunch spread was great and there were optional extra activities to choose from as well so we chose to try Parasailing which was a great experience as well. 100% recommend! This was our favourite day trip in Vietnam.

Great snorkeling great lunch great staff hassle free great location well organised kept to timetable great group of guests everyone had a great time
