About the destination

Phu Quoc — Vietnam's largest island

Phu Quoc is a 575 km² island in the Gulf of Thailand, a special administrative zone of An Giang Province (since June 2025). More than half of its territory is taken up by a national park, and the island itself is part of the Kien Giang Biosphere Reserve (UNESCO, since 2006). Long sandy beaches sit alongside fishing villages, with large resorts and theme parks nearby — which is why a holiday in Phu Quoc suits families with children, couples, and anyone who simply wants to spend plenty of time by the sea.

Phu Quoc beaches and holidays

Bai Sao (Sao Beach) — in the south-east, just north of An Thoi town. It is most often called the island's most beautiful beach: part of the shore is public, part belongs to hotels, and local restaurants operate nearby.
Long Beach — about 20 km of the west coast, the island's main resort and restaurant strip. Known for its open horizon and unobstructed sunsets.
An Thoi Archipelago — a group of small southern islands and reefs, popular for snorkelling and boat trips.

A former prisoner-of-war camp built by the French and later used by South Vietnam. Today it is a museum and a particularly significant national historical monument.
