In the Mui Ne fishing village, there are no high-rise buildings, luxury hotels, and high-class entertainment services to be found. Waiting for visitors here is a peaceful natural scene, filled with the breath of life of fishermen. It is a coastal scene with boats returning to the sea, small houses nestled under the shade of green coconuts. In particular, this is also a place with beautiful scenery at sunset.
Bau Trang (or White Lake), or Bau Sen (Lotus Lake), was formed quite a long time ago. Bau in the local language means "lake". In the summer, lotuses bloom covering the lake area, creating a unique scene between a blooming lotus lake, green and golden sand dunes under the sunlight in the distance. It is such a perfect photoshoot background as well as a playground for exciting activities such as sandboarding, fishing, and off-road motorcycle riding.
