Highlights
  • Cai River - The trip starts at 3:00 PM at the meeting point 39, Yet Kieu. We will transfer you to the riverside where you will get your Stand Up Paddle (SUP). Our departure point is a small floating house where you can see how people are living on the river. A short instruction class for beginners who never try SUP before will be carried out. It will take you around 15 minutes to get used to SUP. After that you can control the SUP and enjoy experience.

We will paddle down the Cai River stream and pass under a wooden bridge that can be considered as Nha Trang version of Burmese U Bein Bridge while catching the sunset over the river.

You can then take some drinks for refreshment before we head back to the departure point. The trip ends around 6:00-7:00 PM.

Such a meditative experience. - I had the pleasure of being the only one on Hanh's tour today, and in all honesty life is all the better for it. I feel thoroughly 'zen' after our afternoon floating about, disconnected, on the Cai River. Hanh picked me up from my hotel via motorcycle and drove the winding backstreets to a secluded little shack by the river. Here we prepared, had a mini-lesson in how to sit/stand/kneel on a SUP, and how to effectively use the paddle. Hanh's English wasn't the greatest, but his instructions were clear and understandable and made for a very peaceful afternoon. We paddled (seated first) in to a tributary surrounded by banana trees and rice fields, and adventured further down until a change in the tide. On making our way back, there was a little time before sunset so we stopped and simply existed on our boards on the river. I understand more now why surfers feel so at home on the waves. Simply "being" on the water, relaxing, staring at the mountains and sky was a delightful and necessary change of pace from city life. At sunset we paddled back to the main river, floated about for a few grand photos, and then slowly returned home once the sun had dipped below the horizon. For me, this whole experience felt a lot like 'hanging out with a mate after work'. Not much was said, but not much needs to when your surrounds are so blissful and the mood is so chill.

A 5 🌟 experience - We had a great time paddling up and down the river, checking out the fields and watching the sunset. Le Tu was a patient coach... One of us didn't know how to swim but it wasn't a problem and we did quite well under his guidance. We were in town for a short time and this fit in with our schedule perfectly. It was a peaceful experience with lots of natural beauty around us.

A breath-taking SUP TOUR in Nha Trang - The port is very easy to find with just about 20 mins with cab from the city center (i think they even do pick-up service from hotel). We met Tu & Sin who instructed us how to properly maneuver our stand up paddle board. They speak English very well, super supportive and enthusiast! + Once you hop on and begin to row, you will immediately find yourselves merging with the natural and if you are lucky, you will catch a stunting sun set on your board while enjoying a bottle of beer (tip: bring a can/bottle of your favorite drink with you)! - The only not so positive point is your arms might feel a bit tired after a long tour but its all worth it! A must try experience not only in Nha Trang but also in Vietnam for me.

Amazing experience - We had a fantastic time here. The instructors were so helpful, we were comfortable with our boards from the beginning. The views were fantastic, and it offers a very different side of nha trang than we saw around the coast. Peace, quiet, mountains, the river, everything was perfect. I recommend this activity to anyone visiting Nha Trang.

Spectacular experience - I have tried Sup one time before in the Philippines, but this one is much cooler! Nha Trang is very beautiful from the river view, and sunset watching experience is spectacular! Yasin is a great host who is funny, thoughtful and very patient to teach the techniques for beginners, and it’s very easy, suitable for anyone. If you get enough of the sea and touristic activities, try Sup with this team for an active, chilled and unforgettable afternoon! Highly recommended!

Paddleboarding - Fantastic afternoon of power boarding with Shin and the team! Scenic setting with great staff and quickly got the hang of power boarding - a good way to begin rather than the sea! Would highly recommend! Very cool power boarding at sunset.

Peace and quiet time - It's not a difficult activity. Some people do feel uncomfortable if they stare long of the river. Nice experience. Enjoy quite and peaceful time on Cai River.
