The Pandanus is the closest resort to the famous "red"
sand dunes and canyon of Mui Ne. The salmon-colored dunes are a
ten minute hike up a small hill above the resort, and the canyons
may be reached by walking north one kilometer on the beach. The
resort is on the northern side of the picturesque fishing village
of Mui Ne towards the tiny village of Ap Thien Ai and separated
from the myriad of small resorts and guest houses that line the
beach south of Mui Ne towards the city of Phan Thiet.
The Mui Ne area records the least amount of rainfall of any area
of Vietnam, so even when it rains daily during July and August in
Ho Chi Minh City, just a three hour drive from Phan Thiet, it seldom
rains in Mui Ne.
