Mui Ne-the little Sahara of Vietnam

In the place that is called the little Sahara of Vietnam, sand sledding is the top activity. There’re so many loca shops renting plastic sleds there so you have wide range of options but just remember to check and agree on the price before picking up a sled. Also, at this dry paradise with strong wind and no electric wire above the head, kite flying is another great idea to enjoy the time here in Mui Ne sand dunes.

The White Dunes of Mui Ne

The White Dune is a large dune consisting a bunch of smaller dunes and known as Bau Trang in Vietnamese. The dunes are covered by snow-white sand dotted with pine trees is an ideal place for both physical activities and sightseeing. Just imagine you’re sledding on the soft dunes under the honey sun of the South or resting under the shades of pine trees watching white dunes running to the horizon, it’s quite pleasant. You can visit this place all year round but remember to see the weather forecast to avoid rainy days as it isn’t fun at all.
