VINH HAO

IDD Code:(+84) 62
Known for its mineral water, which is bottled and sold all over Vietnam, Vinh Hao is an obscure town just off Hwy 1A between Phan Thiet and Phan Rang. It's also the home of Vietnam Scuba (Tell: 853 919; www.vietnamscuba.com), an attractive and well-ap-pointed Korean-run dive centre on a private beach about 3.5km south of Ca Na. easy to spot from the highway. This is very much a by-Koreans tor-Koreans resort, but serious scuba divers (and kimchi [pickled cabbage] lovers) will appreciate the setup and some of the best diving in Vietnam. Marine life includes big fish, manta rays, barracuda and sharks. Daily dive packages (US$130) include ac-commodation in nice beachfront villas, boat trips and guides, and three meals a day. A BC and regulator can be rented for an extra US$50 a day. All dive sites are offshore, anywhere from 30 to 90 minutes from the resort s private jetty.
