Nha Trang, Vietnam at $889 RT

 There's a special joy that comes from exploring a touristy place in the off-season.

When the rainy season chases the crowds away (you can handle a few afternoon showers, right?), it's a whole lot easier to see past the resorts and discover what made Nha Trang popular in the first place. We're talking about gorgeous Buddhist temples, hikes ending in waterfalls, and yes, some spectacular beaches.

Oh, and the café scene? Impeccable.

Pro tip: If you're worried about rainstorms cramping your style, plan your outdoor activities for the morning hours. Showers don't usually show up until the late afternoon.
