Phu Quoc is the largest island in Vietnam, located in the Gulf of Thailand. Phu Quoc has Phu Quoc National Park with many wonderful landscapes and lovely animals/plants, and also has a unique species of its own: Phu Quoc Dog, one of the oldest dog breeds in the world, very likes to climb trees and catch fish. Moreover, coming to Phu Quoc, visitors have the opportunity to witness one of the most terrible prisons in history: Phu Quoc Prison, also known as Coconut Tree Prison. This place today still keeps many torture tools that were used to torture the Viet Minh in the past. Phu Quoc Prison offers a picture of a hell on earth where people are treated like objects! It's horrible, but it's worth seeing once in a lifetime.
Do you know why Phu Quoc Island is called the Pearl Island of Vietnam? The bays in Phu Quoc are always blue and dreamlike. Under the bay, there are many scallops, scallops and sea snails living in this mollusc family with beautiful pearls and this is also one of the major pearl production places. of Vietnam.
HOW TO COME
Currently, services and facilities are developed, so we can choose to go by air for only 1 hour and 10 minutes or you can choose to go by speedboat (Phu Quoc Express or Superdong) to Ha Tien port or Rach Gia port with only 1 hour and 10 minutes. 2 hours 45 minutes. However, the inconvenience when taking a speedboat is that you have to move to Kien Giang province to get to the port.
THE BEST TIME According to my Phu Quoc travel experience, the best time to go to Ngoc Island is the dry season. That is, from the end of October to the end of March of the year, in addition, it can also last until May if the weather is favourable. Why choose these months? At this time, the weather in Phu Quoc is less rainy, the waves are cool, it is very convenient for travelling and relaxing.
I came to Phu Quoc in April 2021, at that time the Covid-19 epidemic had not changed seriously, so when I came to Phu Quoc, there were not as many disease inspection procedures as now. But I think for now Phu Quoc will change some disease control procedures for tourists.

Some places also provide services, which are very suitable for tourists who want to be in harmony with nature.
Quite a few visitors choose to be one of the most beautiful beaches in Phu Quoc. This is also quite understandable. Possessing a coastline of 7km with fine white sand (different from the usual bright yellow sand) and clear blue water, Bai Sao Phu Quoc is reminiscent of world-famous island paradises, for example like Bali or Maldives. The name "Bai Sao" originates from an interesting natural phenomenon. That's because every night, when night covers the island, thousands of starfish begin to "migrate" ashore, creating an extremely strange image. The sea at Bai Sao is considered "healthy", warm and has few waves. The sandy beach under the sea is gentle, without slopes or rocks, so it is very suitable for families travelling with young children.
Stretching from Dinh Cau to Khoe Tau Ru, Bai Truong is 20 hectares wide and is favoured by locals as "the soul of Phu Quoc". Not owning a dreamy white sandy beach, what makes Bai Truong's charm is the crystal clear sea surface that can change colour. Depending on the time of day, Bai Truong Phu Quoc beach will embrace or reflect the sun, to turn blue, light pink, dark purple or turquoise.
You may not know: Ong Lang Beach is the Phu Quoc beach that is checked-in by international tourists the most on Instagram. Not as famous as Bai Sao or Bai Truong, Ong Lang Beach Phu Quoc is calm and clear, with countless natural rocky beaches - the home of coral reefs, colourful small fishes.

About 10km from the centre of Duong D**g town, Cua Can Beach Phu Quoc owns a white sandbank in the shape of a curving arc, shyly surrounded by a rich natural green carpet. From a distance, this beach looks exactly like the gentle strokes of nature, standing out on the sparkling turquoise sea. As one of the most unspoiled beautiful beaches in Phu Quoc, there are not too many trading or tourist activities in Phu Quoc.
