About Phan Thiet
Known for kitesurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces S, so wind from the N blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).
Water about 28°C: no wetsuit. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.
A spot for kitesurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing S. Wind from the S blows onshore, wind from the N blows out to sea, and wind from the W or E runs along the shore. It is sheltered to the open sea. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 3.8 km out (1 in 385). The sea is about 25°C in February, its coldest month (no wetsuit), and 30°C in May, its warmest (no wetsuit). The town to stay in is Phan Thiết.
The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
