Overview
Mui Ne is a laid-back beach town 200 km northeast of Ho Chi Minh City, famous for its dramatic red and white sand dunes, strong winds that make it Vietnam's kitesurfing capital, and a long stretch of palm-fringed beach. It is more relaxed than Nha Trang and serves as a popular short break from HCMC or a stop between the south coast and [[Da-Lat]].
