TL-DR - subject line, with the swimmable beach being the key
I have been to SE asia quite a few times before, but never for a solo beach trip
Key requirement - i really like sea swimming but still seeking safe water, but many advertised beaches are good for say tourists splashing and swimming a bit nearshore, i want to be able to go out maybe a bit more in clearer water
I am not into temples, not into modern history, but do like prehistory and nature, and hiking routes and maybe the potential to meet others. But not wanting a tourist scene or lots of clubs etc, not into drinking etc
I also want a busy enough place but not overly busy, as in i can walk to stores and restaurants nearby, and can maybe take buses or taxis easily around in and out of wherever
I will be flying from the UK, so i suspect i will need to change planes, which is ok, but that is also a factor, with wanting simplicity
Accomodation - something simple, maybe i will get an aparthotel, or a hotel to keep it easy, but i am not seeking fancy but seeking safe and decent enough
Hope that makes sense, i am currently looking at Hoi An, or Da Nang, but seeking what else comes up
thank you
