Landed at Cam Ranh and a TGROUP driver was already there holding a sign with my name (felt fancy, won't lie). We headed almost straight to KN Golf Links to shake off the flight. It's a links course hugging the sea, so the wind does whatever it wants with your ball. The views are unreal. My scorecard, we don't talk about. One heads-up: the Cam Ranh sun is brutal, bring sunscreen or go home looking like a lobster.

Nha Trang is way more than golf. On the afternoons off I swam, did a VinWonders day like a big kid, and ate my bodyweight in seafood, crab and prawns and all of it, with cold local beer. Also salty coffee. Sounds odd, tastes great. Premier Havana being central made everything easy.

The next two days were Vinpearl Golf and Diamond Bay. Vinpearl, out on the island, is just stunning, and honestly a bit kinder to bad players like me than KN was. Diamond Bay is big and open and really fun to play. By day three my arms were toast, but no way was I skipping a round. The caddies at all three were great, patient, helpful, and very kind about my, uh, creative shots.

Came home a little obsessed, honestly. Three courses, three totally different vibes, all by the sea so it never got boring. Perfect for a buddies' trip, and fine even if your handicap is basically a personality trait, like mine. Already plotting round two.
