ABOUT YOUR DESTINATION
Why Visit Phu Quoc?
Phu Quoc is a glistening island off the southwest coast of Vietnam. Half of it is a protected national park, and the other half is a fast-growing tourism centre boasting white-sand beaches and crystal-clear waters.
Long Beach is its most popular palm tree-lined coast. But if you're looking for a more laidback experience, we recommend checking out the southern beaches of Bai Sao and Bai Dam. Explore the island's backroads by motorbike and get lost in the beauty of Phu Quoc.
