About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- ElisevanderHoek0 contributionsAmazing experience, highly recommended!The experience was amazing! I rented a sailing boat (Laser Radial) and at first I received some instructions from the super sweet owner Julia. After the refreshment instruction one of the Vietnamese teachers joined me on board to guide me a bit (my last time in a laser was a couple of years ago). After 15 min he jumped out and swam back to the beach. I just had to pay the actual minutes I was sailing and even the short breaks (the wind was quite hard) where timed which I didn’t had to pay. After the sailing we had some watermelon and we chatted a bit. The ambiance is very nice and relaxing! Because of the amazing experience I went twice! A friend of mine did a starter course and she learned a lot in one day! I highly recommend it!Written 5 February 2023

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Manta sail training centre offers lessons in a great range of olympic standard boats. The lovely owner Julia will have you sailing solo before you know it. Afterwards enjoy an ice cold beer and watch the gourgeous sunset on the porch with good company. Manta also offers cheap fabulous rooms right on the beach. A great place to stay while you visit Mui Ne.

Fantastic sailing school with excellent equipment and great instructers. Highly recommended for beginners and experienced sailors!. Sunset beers at the school after a day on the water was a real highlight!

Thanks to Julia and her team "The Beach Boys" who dedicate huge amounts of effort to make this centre work and keep it running - which must seem like an uphill struggle sometimes I'm sure!
My girlfriend and I had a very happy stay here for a few days over the summer and enjoyed the sailing and being at their beautiful quiet part of the beach. Her idea to incorporate awareness of solutions for the pollution and the health of the sea and sea animals is excellent and inspiring! I'm sure all the school kids who pass through here learn and take something important home.
That alone would be enough reason for you to visit! But this is not just charity! There is some nice accomodation to stay in and some excellent sailing and watersports equipment to rent and get tuition on. Probably still the best and only place you can get it in Vietnam!
Try to contact them before you arrive (by phone better) to be sure that the centre is not busy with school projects (which I'm sure they'd take volunteer help for!?) or closed as many of the staff have families to look after and other work comitments too!
We were lucky to be able to pop in during a quiet spell and it was lovely to spend time with Julia, chat about life and all sorts of things! Best wishes to MANTA Sailing Centre!

Whilst in Mui Ne for traveling, we decided to try out a few water sports. My friend recommended Manta as one of his favorite places for having sailing training in Mui Ne.
I fell in love with the vibe here, the meaningful projects (For children, Environment & The local) Julia and Nhat are working on, the amazing view, friendly and helpful staffs.
And it's worth for money. After the trip, I can balance myself on a paddleboard, had a great experience with the coach (Mr.Phung) on a sail even it scared me cause of strong wind :)

Surely the best place in Vietnam for a watersports weekend. You can book a room here if you appreciate a really chilled atmosphere or go to one of the recommended hotels nearby if you want something more upmarket. There's kite boarding, windsurfing and dinghy sailing right off the beach ~ all offered with or without instruction depending on your level. Best to phone ahead as it can get busy in season.

Had such a great sailing lesson with the highly trained, kind and patient coaches at the sailing centre. Thank you so much for helping me! Definitely worth a try if you have ever considered learning to sail. Will be back for more lessons.

My wife and I did 2 sessions at manta and really enjoyed both. Julia, the owner was very friendly and chatty and really helpful and our instructor was great too. We had never been sailing before so we were introduced to the basics on the first day and sailing around the bay on the second day. The conditions were great and the instruction was also first class.
Note - when we first arrived we weren't sure if it was even open as they have had some trouble with the sand dunes behind coming into their premises. Once you get through the sand the set up is good and the equipment seemed excellent and well maintained as well.
Also if you are doing this for the first time you'll need more than an hour to get the the most out of it. You'll spend 40ish minutes learning the basics so book an hour and a half or two hour session at least.

Fantastic sailing in Mui with lasers, other boats, and windsurfing in a more protected area of Mui Ne beach which allows beginners and more advanced sailors to test out the great wind in Mui Ne. Run by Julia and her amazing team, it is a very relaxing and fun place to spend the day for a good price, lodging also available which is cheap and cheerful and right on the beach. Highly recommend.

I go there for sailing many time in year. Manta is really nice place for sailing for beginner or more.
Julia and Manta boys are really friendly. They help me much when I starting with sailing.
Equipment is excellent also
Beside that, Manta have some room for stay with cheap price...next to the beach, you can enjoy the beautiful sunrise and sunset

I and my friends went to Mui Ne as travelling. We came and stayed in Manta instead of other wel-known resorts and hotels. And we did have wonderful experience here. They offered a garden with BBQ facilities, drinks at the bar, food in the shared kitchen. It makes me feel at home. Many thanks for the services! I wil come back for sure.
