Mui Ne (Binh Thuan Province) in the top 11 most ideal
sand-boarding destinations in the world
The vast sand dunes stretching endlessly is the ideal condition to develop
sand-boarding. Sand-boarding is quite similar with snowboarding and increasingly
attracting tourists worldwide. Recently, the website Wonderslist (US) has
announced the top 11 most ideal sand-boarding destinations in the world, of
which Mui Ne Sand Dune of Viet Nam is ranked 2nd.
Belonging to Mui Ne Ward, Phan Thiet City, Binh Thuan Province, 22km to the
north-east of the city centre, Mui Ne has charming beach with blue water and
unique beautiful sand dune in Viet Nam.
Mui Ne Sand Dune was an old iron mine formed hundreds of years ago, spreading
over an area of 50ha. The sand in Mui Ne has many colors such as yellow,
white, gray, ivory, pink, red, black... Mui Ne Sand Dune is also known as the
Flying Sand Dune because the sand dune’s shape changes every hour. This is the
result of winding and eroding the thin upper sand layer. Mui Ne Sand Dune is the
infinite source for many artists and professional photographers to capture
stunning images of sand.
In order to develop Mui Ne tourism, Binh Thuan Province licensed to construct
golf courses and resorts at the same time plan trees in the sand dune to create
beautiful landscapes and contribute to reducing mobility of sand. In addition,
Mui Ne also develops various types of sports tourism such as sand-boarding,
motor racing, terrain car racing on sand...
The most ideal time to visit Mui Ne Sand Dune is from 5h00 to 8h00 because sand
is still cool in this time.
Apart from Mui Ne, the list of the most ideal sand-boarding also consists of
Duna Grande (Peru); Tattori, Chiba and Shimoda (Japan); Lucky Bay (Australia);
Cerro Negro volcano active (Nicaragua); Cerro Iman, Valle de la muerte, Cerro
Dragon, Medanoso, Punta de Choros (Chile); desert in Dubai (United Arab
Emirates); Sossusvlei, Swakopmund and Walvis Bay (Namibia); Sandmaster (US);
Hirschau (Germany); Great Sand Sea near Siwa (Egypt).
