Day 1: Arrival Phu Quoc IslandYou can get to Phu Quoc Island by ferry or flight and on arrival, you'll organise your own transfer to your beach resort on peaceful Ong Lang beach. Either transfer is very easy to arrange as there is, most certainly, no shortage of taxi drivers and tuk-tuks in Vietnam. Ong Lang is a spectacular stretch of beach lining the west side of the island, fringed by palm trees providing some welcome shade. From December to June, temperatures can soar, so be sure to bring some sunscreen. With clear blue skies and calm blue seas, Phu Quoc is a fantastic place to get away from it all. You'll stay in enchanting and tastefully furnished bungalows. The friendly owners will make you feel welcome from the moment of your arrival. There is an excellent restaurant with a sparkling seaview for romantic sunset dinner, and tasty fresh fish is a regular feature on the menu. |

Days 2 and 3: Phu Quoc IslandToday, you can just stretch out on the white sandy beach or rock gently in a hammock under the palm trees with your nose in a book. If you're feeling lively, you can swim in the azure waters, snorkel, or even take a dive to explore the underwater world. There is a diving school on the island, and it's very easy to arrange lessons. If you'd like to try diving on Phu Quoc, just let us know and we'll organise everything for you.More restless travellers can explore the tropical wilderness of interior Phu Quoc Island. In 2001, almost 70% of the island was declared to be a national park, so the ecosystems on the island have been completely preserved. It is also mountainous and almost completely covered in rainforest, with a number of natural springs for a quick refreshing dip. The best known and most accessible spring is called the Suoi Da Ban (also called Stony Surface Stream). On Day 3 of your stay, you'll take a boat trip to the An Thoi Islands- 15 tiny land masses that lie off the south coast. The trip is a perfect opportunity to swim, snorkel or simply snooze in the sun. You'll sail on a traditional wooden boat and a tasty lunch of fresh local fish will be served on board. |
Day 4: Phu Quoc Island - Ho Chi MinhToday, you'll leave your footsteps in the sand for the last time. After breakfast, you'll head back to Ho Chi Minh City and the bustle of the mainland. You can easily arrange a transfer to the airport on the island. From here, the speedy domestic flight back to Ho Chi Minh City takes less than an hour. Of course, you're perfectly welcome to extend your stay on the island. Just let us know, and we'll make the arrangements on your behalf. |
