Vietnam Kien Giang Phu Quoc Phú Quốc
An idyllic Vietnamese island known for its beaches, resorts, and the production of fish sauce, located in the Gulf of Thailand.
Tips from the community
Unbeknownst to many, Vietnam extends into the Gulf of Thailand with
Phu Quoc: an ultra laid-back island chain that usually flies under the radar from most trip planning. The archipelago consists of 28 islands, each bordered with fluffy white sand and balmy waters. You can snorkel, catch a sunset, and eat at
a floating restaurant all in the same day. Take in the sights from ground level, or hop on the world’s longest oversea cable car for a different perspective. Interestingly, Phu Quoc is a visa-free destination (unlike the rest of Vietnam), so if you feel like showing up unannounced from another country, go on and do it.
