The rustic beauty of the fishing village that tourists feel from the seafood dishes just caught from the sea. Especially the real experience with fishermen right on the sea where they come to visit and relax creates a unique feature in the National Tourist Area. At 5 am, at the fishing village beach, there were quite a lot of tourists gathered. Many people came to watch the sunrise on the sea, some came to swim and some came to see many fishermen catching seafood with traditional basket boats which are quite strange to city people or mountain people. Ms. Nguyen Thi Phuong in Binh Phuoc brought her family to Mui Ne for a vacation. She said: "The whole family was surprised and delighted to see dozens of basket boats casting nets along the coast in the morning. The fish and shrimp caught in the nets were removed by fishermen right on the beach to sell to tourists and groups of people who collected the goods to bring to the market to resell. My mother, over 70 years old, saw the sea fish caught in the nets so she also asked to come and remove them to buy. She said it was the first time she saw a basket boat casting nets, so she was very excited to see the fish jumping on the beach. Although she could not cook on the spot, she was confident that the fish she personally removed from the nets would taste better than any fish bought at the market...".
