Fantastic Foto Friday: Safe, sunny, sandy: Nha Trang Beach, Vietnam

Nha Trang Beach & Boardwalk

Nha Trang in South Central Vietnam is blessed with endless beaches. You can walk for miles along the boardwalk or sandy shore and enjoy the view out over the warm see. There are trees and grass behind it, so you can rest in the shade. And Vietnam has done exceptionally well during the Coronavirus pandemic, making it a safe choice for post-CoVid travel!

Fantastic Foto Friday: Pattaya Beach, Thailand

The (in)famous Pattaya, is the closest beach getaway from Bangkok. You’ll get all the sand, sun, warm waters and gorgeous sunsets you’d expect from a tropical beach, and all at a budget price. And while the beach in Pattaya itself can be so crowded with chairs that you can barely see it, Jomtien to the South has beautiful beach with fewer vendors, so you can just throw down your towel and stick your toes in the soft, white sand!
