Phan Thiet is the largest town in Binh Thuan province, 200 km from Saigon on the coast in South Central Vietnam. Phan Thiet is surrounded by beautiful beaches, including the Bai Rang or Rang Beach, but is best known for its fish sauce and for the nearby tourist beach of Mui Ne.
Mui Ne is a popular beach destination for Vietnamese and expats living in HCMC, as well as a growing number of tourists. Along a 22 km stretch of white sands from Phan Thiet to a fishing village at the tip of the Mui Ne peninsula, Mui Ne offers a wide selection of resorts, many with thatched bungalows (from luxury to basic) right along the beach.
