In Mui Ne, such popular activities as scuba diving and snorkeling are not available, but in those days when central Vietnam is suffered heavily from big storms and tropical rain, this city is still safe and dry. The climate in Mui Ne is unique because it is made up of sand hills and even in the rainy season (from June to September each year), the rain does not cause many inconveniences to local people and visitors. Phan Thiet is famous for its favorable weather all year round and the lowest average rainfall in the country. Accordingly, the average daily temperature usually fluctuates at an acceptable level of about 23-30^oC.
