For a taste of classic Vietnam, you can visit pearl farms, working plantations and the Coconut Tree Prison to learn the history of the Vietnam War. The Dinh Cao Temple is another must-see, the unique part-shrine, part-lighthouse is considered the symbol of Phu Quoc. Vietnamese cuisine is the world’s best. Seafood is a menu-staple, and you can tuck into freshly caught fish brought in by local fisherman every morning. The Dinh Cau Night Market is the perfect place to mingle with the locals and sample freshly-cooked cuisine. Known as the ‘Emerald Island’, 90% of Phu Quoc is covered in thick jungle and forest-covered mountains. If you’re a nature lover, you can hike through Phu Quoc National Park spotting civet cats and slow lorises along the way.
