Per one customer who booked the 5-Hour Sunrise or Sunset Jeep Tour from Mui Ne Beach Town, "We had a lovely morning, visiting the white & red sand dunes, fishing village and the fairy stream. Especially the sunrise at the white sand dunes was stunning. Our guide Tom was super helpful and we had a great time thanks to him."

Mui Ne is a popular beach resort town about 4 hours east of Ho Chi Minh City by car or motorbike. The town is best known for its white sand dunes and beaches such as Rang Beach (aka Mui Ne Beach), plus windsurfing and kitesurfing, super-fresh seafood, and plentiful resort offerings.

Mui Ne’s main attraction is Rang Beach—often called Mui Ne Beach—which is the best developed, with tons of restaurants and resorts along its strip of sand. Ganh Beach and Suoi Nuoc Beach are also popular, as is visiting the white and red sand dunes, and the Linh Long Buddhist temple.

The best time of year to visit Mui Ne is between December and April, which is the dry season. It’s also peak season, so expect fairly sizeable crowds. For small crowds, visit Mui Ne in November and December or April and May, and take advantage of traveling in the shoulder season.

The most adventurous way to get to Mui Ne from Ho Chi Minh City would be to rent a motorbike and head out on your own. Apart from that, most visitors will book a group tour, shuttle service, or private car. You could also ride the bus for a taste of daily Vietnamese life.
