| Bus cost from HCMC: 5 usd |
Where: Mui Ne, Vietnam
Why: Beach, adventure time and some peace and quiet away from HCMC.
Transportation: 5-hour bus ride from HCMC. We took a sleeping bus. It was a good way to travel, as long as you weren't over 6 feet tall. I felt like I was in a spaceship!

| Great room with a great view! |
A 3-minute walk up from the beach we found a great villa on the hill called the Mui Ne Hills Guesthouse.
TripAdvisor Review here.
On Saturday, we started the day off right with an ocean view breakfast, at the villa, which included eggs, toast and fruit.
We rented a motorbike for the day and set off to explore Fairy Stream (aka Suoi Tien), a shallow river that flows between bamboo forests and sand dunes. Visitors can walk barefoot through the water to a small waterfall.
At the Red Sand Dunes we were approached by kids renting plastic sleds however, we found walking and jumping up and down the dunes to be plenty of sandy fun for us. The dunes are a remarkable "must-see" in Mui Ne.
The remainder of our weekend was spent on the beach
walking, swimming and watching kite surfers (another sport I would love to learn!).

Mui Ne is all about the seafood! Boiled, grilled, BBQ, fried, however, you like it. On our trip we enjoyed squid, prawns, red snapper and grouper fish. Yummy!
