Kiteboarding
and Windsurfing in Mui Ne Beach

secret is out.
Golf
in Phan Thiet
Ocean
Dunes Golf Club
Mui Ne and Phan Thiet are becoming a hot spot for
golfers. The first international club to open, in 1996, was the 18-hole Ocean
Dunes Golf Club.
It was designed by Nick Faldo who remarked, “It has
the feel and the playability of early Scottish seaside courses [but] in a
tropical climate.” The club is at 1 Ton Duc Thang, Phan Thiet.
