Phu Quoc

White-sand beaches, fishing villages, forests, pepper and the easy contrast between resort and island life.

Phu Quoc is known for white-sand beaches and clear water, but fishing, agriculture and forest remain part of the island's character. The island is also home to fish sauce, pepper and pearl traditions, with protected natural areas providing another reason to leave the resort strip. Use the coast for water time, then make room for local food, village roads and the forested interior.
