"Where to go in Vietnam in September?" - a question that makes many travelers think seriously about it, because the first autumn month here belongs to the wet season (precipitation at this time spreads throughout all Vietnamese regions).
Prices for tours to Vietnam in September are quite attractive, but before you take advantage of the financial benefits (the cost of tours is reduced by about 30%), it is important to understand that a trip here can be overshadowed by not very favorable meteorological conditions.
Weather and vacation in Vietnam in September
The central part of Vietnam is exposed to monsoons in September, so at this time it is unsafe to rest in Da Nang, Hue and other resorts in the center of the country.
At the beginning of autumn, you can pay attention to the northern provinces, but it is worth considering that although there is less precipitation there, their volume is significant. So, in Hanoi and Halong, it can be rainy for 10-14 days, but bad weather is occasionally replaced by good weather.
More suitable conditions for recreation can be found in the southern resorts, where, although it is rather humid, there is no heavy rainfall (most often it rains in the early morning or at night). So, if you are faced with a choice - Phu Quoc, Nha Trang or Phan Thiet, it is better to bet on the last two resorts, where long dry periods often come.
September Vietnam is not suitable for divers and fans of underwater photography (muddy water significantly reduces visibility), but at the beginning of autumn here you can “cut through” on the surf and kite.
Those interested in temperature values should know: at the beginning of autumn, on average in Vietnam, the column shows +27? C (at noon, these figures are higher). In the south, you can expect + 32-33? C, and in the north, in particular in Haiphong, + 25-31? C.
At the beginning of September (on the 2nd), it is worth visiting the celebration of Independence Day - a solemn parade is held in Hanoi, and in the evening - fireworks. Another interesting event in September is the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Beaches of Nha Trang:
- the beach of the Paragon hotel: despite the fact that it is located on the territory of a 3-star hotel, not only its guests can relax here. The entrance is free, but the cost of renting sun loungers (they are covered with soft mattresses) and umbrellas cannot be called low (for this reason, it is not crowded here).
