With only a 10% humidity during most of the year,
Binh Thuan is the dryest province in Vietnam. Most of its terrain consist of
rocky mountains and sandy hills. Agriculture is almost non existent since
few crops can grow on this arid land.

A few kilometers East of Phan Thiet are
some of the most beautiful stretches of beaches in Vietnam. Some are
lined with tall coconut trees, others lean against vast red sand dunes.

During the period between July and October, the
fishing season is at its pinnacle in Phan Thiet as fishermen go out to
sea. These boats form a magnificent display of lights at night and can be seen
from shore. In fact, the scene is liken to a floating city by the locals.
