Mui Ne is located 24 kilometres northeast of Phan Thiet city. It is a fishing village as well as a familiar tourism area in Binh Thuan province.
With lovely scenery of swaying coconut trees, Mui Ne, meaning “sheltered peninsula” is one of the famous and popular holiday
destinations in the world with 15-kilometre strip of resorts along the beach. Thanks to the shallow and slopped beaches, the blue and
clean water, nice sun rarely behind the clouds and cliffs battered by the waves of the sea, sometimes Mui Ne is considered Hawaii of Viet
Nam. The beaches are fantastic with activities such as surfing and kitesurfing. But the most attractive scenery at Mui Ne is moving lines of
golden sand which is called “Sand dunes” by local people. The sand is always moving due to the wind and looks like moving waves afar and
that is the reason why the dunes never look the same. The scenery is more fascinating at dawn. Mui Ne is really a good ideal for those who
are interested in photography.
