White sandy beach, but pretty much dead coral. There are not so much kitesurfers seen there, so you will have a audience off approx. 100 curious Vietnamese people.

December and January air temperature was mid 80-mid 90s°F. Water temperature warm - no wetsuit required. Basically, the South has two seasons: the wet (May to November, wettest from June to August) and the dry (December to April). The hottest and most humid time is from the end of February to May. The central coast is dry from May to October and wet from December to February. There is the possibility of typhoons between July and November, affecting the North and central areas.

Main wind November to April: sideonshore 20-45 knots. Wind is nearly daily above 20-25 knots some times up to 35-40 knots. Wind is usually North Eastern. During the rest of the year 10-15 knots some time up to 20 knots sideonshore Southeastern wind. It's in the open sea, so add a couple of knots to the general wind speeds of Mui Ne. I was there for 3 days with 3 days of 30 knots average! But there is no sea breeze effect like in Mui Ne.
