At the north end of Mui Ne, a beach town in Vietnam, is a little creek – the Fairy Stream – that winds its way through the sand dunes that surround the town. The stream’s bottom is super soft sand and mud that’s fun to walk through in bare feet. We walked about a mile up the creek, played in the mud, and then returned to end of the stream – where it flows into the ocean.

A view of the Fairy Stream – sand on one side, green on the other.

Taking a break. The pictures don’t capture how hot it was. The day we did the walk was a scorcher.

Go up …

… and slide back down.

What a blast! We haven’t done Vietnam yet, but really want to get there and spend some time. Looks like your kiddos really enjoyed themselves.
looks as though it’s fun to play in — and to look at as well. thanks.
Thanks Kerry and Myscha. It was fun. The mud and the warm water and the hot sun made it feel strangely like being in an outdoor spa.
Great post and pics. I am planning a trip to Vietnam with my two kids next year. Looks like I should put this on the itinery!
Nice post on what looks like a great place for kids. I’m wondering how tough it was to get those mud stains out of the white pants.
