Region, Mui Ne
Mui Ne is located about five hours away from the capital of Vietnam by bus. In the past, it was a quiet fishing village, but now it has established itself as a representative tourist destination visited by many Vietnamese and foreign tourists.
In addition to the Red Sand Dunes and White Sand Dunes, Mui Ne offers a variety of things to see and eat that will give you an exotic feel, such as the Fairy Spring and Fishing Village, and it is an attractive city where you can enjoy marine sports such as kite surfing and windsurfing. There are plenty of things to eat, see, and enjoy, such as tasting fresh seafood at the village fish market and enjoying a dune tour. Make your break in Mui Ne even more dynamic!
Organization
We first started a surfing school in Mui Ne, Vietnam, and we provide training that is difficult to experience in the surrounding area, such as kite surfing and windsurfing, rather than simple surfing. With the skilled know-how of experienced instructors with long experience in teaching, we provide an environment where many tourists can receive training safely every year.
In particular, it is famous as a place to learn kite surfing, which is designed to allow surfing even without waves, and is drawing attention from marine sports enthusiasts. Enjoy leisurely lying on a sunbed at a resort facing the sea and enjoy a dynamic sport that will stimulate the excitement you had forgotten!

Kite surfing
It is a sport that combines the characteristics of paragliding, which is powered by the wind, and surfing on the sea. It is a sport in which a large kite is launched into the air, and controlled, and various techniques are performed on the water with a surfboard according to the power of the wind.
It was invented in the 1990s in Europe and Hawaii to find a way to enjoy surfing even on days when there are no waves, and it has been introduced to Korea since 2000 and has been spreading through clubs and other organizations.
You need to acquire surfing skills along with paragliding control skills, but if you master the basic essential skills, you can easily enjoy applying various techniques. The charm of kite surfing lies in the jump called ‘flying’. Take advantage of the upward force of the kite and try a dramatic jump of several meters on a calm surface without waves!
Windsurfing
It is a water sport that combines a yacht’s sail and a surfboard and is enjoyed by maintaining balance according to the strength of the wind. Windsurfing is a popular sport that is called the ‘flower of water sports’.
Windsurfing first became an explosive boom in Europe rather than in the United States, and was adopted as an official event starting from the 1984 LA Olympics. In Korea, it attracted great interest from the general public by holding a windsurfing parade at the Hangang River Festival before the opening ceremony of the 1988 Seoul Olympics and has since spread to the general public and is enjoyed by many. The skills needed to enjoy windsurfing include sailing against the wind, sailing downwind, tacking, and sailing, and there are sailing points according to the wind direction, so you need to learn them well. If you learn just a few basic skills among the various skills, you will not have much difficulty in controlling windsurfing, so it will be easy.
