Kiteboarding & Windsurfing in Mui Ne Bay
Mui Ne is quickly becoming a South East Asian Mecca for kiteboarding and windsurfing. Mui Ne has the best conditions in all of Asia for water sports because it has Asia's strongest and most consistent cross-onshore winds and the lowest rainfall in Vietnam. Every day is a perfect day. You may ask why you haven't heard of it, if it's so great? The reason is the tourism industry has only existed for about 10 years in this province. The development is new, and this best-kept secret has only just been discovered. The area is often referred to by the water sports industry as "Mui Ne Bay," although the bay is more correctly the "Bay of Phan Thiet" (Phan Thiet is the provincial capital of Binh Thuan Province and lies in the center of the bay). Depths in the bay are irregular, and a bank with depths of less than 5.5m, extends 1.5 miles west of Mui Ne. The true name of Mui Ne Beach is actually "Rang" but the tourist industry refers to it as Mui Ne, after the village on the point. 
There are currently about a dozen Kiteboarding centers in Mui Ne and the competition is fierce. Resorts have taken note of the popularity of the sport, and new teaching centers are bound to pop up all over the beach. Just a few years ago you might see just a couple of kites and sails on the water during an afternoon. These days it can be quite a spectacle. Not all kite centers are created equal. There are a lot of inexperienced amateurs with fly-by-night instructors opening new centers at resorts every season. We've made your choice much easier by choosing only the best, certified, and most experienced kite centers. Mui Ne Kite Centers

Jibes/Full Moon Beach
Jibes opened in 2001 and is first and the best known Kitesurfing school in Mui Ne. Jibes and Full Moon Beach Resort are owned by Frenchmen Pascal Lefebvre and his wife, and have appeared in numerous articles in Vietnam and internationally. Jibes was the first real bar on the beach and thus drew the backpacker crowd. The Full Moon Beach Kitesurfing school is IKO certified, and boasts that its instructors can teach in nine languages. Jibes is famous for the annual Kiteboarding-Windsurfing Vietnam Fun Cup competition held at the club. The center offers a variety of water sports and is conveniently located near the Coco Internet Cafe and both Hanh Cafe and TM Brothers tour companies. A Note on Safety & Mui Ne ConditionsMedical Emergencies. The nearest hospital is in Phan Thiet, which is about 20 minutes from Mui Ne. Keep in mind, the further away you go to play, the further you are from medical facilities. There are no medical airlifts or speedboats. Kite centers may not have insurance or adequate first aid supplies and training. Don't assume you "they got you covered." Ask questions before you sign up. Serious injuries do happen here. Swimming. Unfortunately some water sports enthusiasts are careless and ignore the safety of swimmers. Swimmers should not assume that kitesurfers can see or avoid them. Stay clear of launch and landing areas for your own safety. The best time to swim is early hours of the morning or early evening (usually when there are no windsurfers or kiteboarders in the water).
