Oceanography Museum

The Oceanography Museum belongs to the Institute of Oceanography and sits in the south of Nha Trang by Cầu Đá port, where boats leave for the islands. About 5,000 m² of halls and pools, with more than 300 species in the tanks. Open daily from 6:00 to 18:00. Bảo Đại's villas are next door on Cảnh Long hill — easy to combine, but only on weekdays. A separate deep-ocean exhibition, «Đại dương kỳ bí», is in the museum's branch on the hill by Hòn Chồng in the north of the city (8:00–11:30 and 14:00–17:00).
