PHAN THIET Beach Resort Holiday

 Fishing at the shore-line.

 

Located 200 km from Saigon along Vietnam's southeastern coast, Phan Thiet is home to one of the best stretches of beach in the country. Phan Thiet is a classic example of a resort which has retained its fishing village culture. The town itself has remained untouched by tourism, while a collection of excellent resorts have opened along the coast on the Mui Ne Peninsula. Well spaced and sensitively constructed, these resorts offer everything that a visitor could want from a beach destination. Golfers will enjoy Ocean Dunes, a classic links course in a stunning setting, whilst family holidaymakers will love the bungalows and sandy beaches at the Victoria Phan Thiet, The Coco Beach Resort or the Yasaka Saigon Mui Ne Resort.
