Located on Vietnam’s south coast, the idyllic fishing village of Mui Ne has become an enchanting tourist destination as well and these are some of the best experiences here that you can enjoy.
Try Kitesurfing
For those choosing to be based at a local beach resort, Mui Ne getaways can include enjoying the thrills of kitesurfing at one of the best destinations in Asia for this activity. While you can try it year-round, the best period is from November to April with an average wind speed of 18 to 25 knots. If you’re a novice don’t fret, there are plenty of places here where you can learn the ropes and hire the needed equipment.
Explore Two Sand Dunes
There are two famous sand dunes of contrasting colours here which can be easily reached from beachside properties like Anantara Mui Ne Resort. Begin the day with a sunrise visit to the White Sand Dunes with its pristine desert-like landscapes; you can go on a hot air balloon ride or for more excitement, try quad biking as well. Also, visit the Red Sand Dunes with their typically reddish hue and spellbinding sunset views; you can additionally rent a sand-sled for an exhilarating ride down the slopes!
Wander Along the Fairy Stream
Near the Red Sand Dunes is another well-known site called the Fairy Stream; as its name suggests, expect to find a tranquil meandering stream amidst distinctive rock formations and picturesque natural flora. The stream is only around ankle-deep so feel free to remove your footwear and wade through the water; when done, head up to the surrounding rocks to take in some great views.
Visit the Po Shanu Cham Towers
Amongst the prominent historical attractions in Mui Ne, the Po Shanu Cham Towers date to the 8th century and provide fascinating insights into the Champa Kingdom and the region’s rich heritage. These three towers can be found on Ong Hoang Hill close to Phan Thiet and were originally constructed to honour such Hindu deities as Lord Shiva; there’s a small pagoda here that you can visit too.
