DESTINATION DETAIL

Muine

Sunshine and sands are one of Vietnam tours’ main specialties, so enjoy them. Mui Ne has quickly been transferformed from an isolated stretch of beautiful white sand to one long row of resorts. While there’s still a fishing village at the east end of the beach, it’s tourists that make up most of the population. Mui Ne sees only about half the rainfall of nearby Phan Thiet. The sand dunes help protect its unique microcclimate, and even during the wet season rains tend to be fairly light and sporadic. The red and white sand dunes will make your Vietnam holiday more funny

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

1. Getting there & away

It used to be that Mui Ne was quite isolated and could only be approached by an 11km diversion from Hwy 1A through Phan Thiet. Recently a new road has opened, heading northeast from the eastern end of the beach, connecting back to Hwy 1A halfway to Ca Na. This scenic stretch, past deserted beaches and a beautiful lake ringed with water lilies, greatly reduces the northward journey and allows the open-tour buses to pass through Mui Ne without backtracking.

These buses are the best option for Mui Ne, and Sinh Café and Hanh Café both have daily services to/from HCMC (US$6, four hours), Nha Trang (US$6, five hours) via Ca Na (60, 000d, 1½ hours) and Dalat (US$7, 5½ hours). A local bus makes trips between Phan Thiet bus station and Mui Ne, but it is irregular and slow. The best way to reach the beach from the highway in Phan Thiet is by xe om (50, 000d).
