This lively Vietnamese island promises the best of both adventure and relaxation. Its crystal-clear waters are perfect for snorkelling or diving, with even more spectacular sites waiting in the nearby An Thoi islands. Above the water's surface, try everything from kayaking and sailing to jet skiing or night-time squid fishing. Guided tours of fish sauce workshops, where the island’s famous nuoc mam is made, are fascinating and good fun.
On land, life slows down on Phú Quốc’s soft, sun-soaked beaches. Long Beach is a perennial favourite, while Sao Beach, at the island’s southern tip, is often hailed as one of Asia’s most beautiful stretches of sand. Away from the coast, jungle trails, waterfalls and rich birdlife await in Phú Quốc National Park. Come evening, savour fresh seafood with a cold beer at Duong Dong Town’s bustling night market, or kick back on the sand at your choice of the best places to stay on Phú Quốc.
