Mui Ne
062 / POP 16,000
Once upon a time, Mui Ne was an isolated stretch of sand, but it was too beautiful to be
ignored - it's now a string of resorts. Mercifully, most of these are low-rise and set amid
pretty gardens by the sea. The original fishing village is still here, but tourists outnumber
locals these days. Mui Ne is definitely moving upmarket, as more exclusive resorts open
their doors, but there is still a (kite) surfer vibe to the town.
Mui Ne is the adrenalin capital of southern Vietnam - windsurfing and kitesurfing are
huge here. Surf's up from August to December. It's also the 'Sahara' of Vietnam, with the
most dramatic sand dunes in the region looming large.
