Vietnam - Phu Quoc Holidays

Anchored just off the south-west coast of Vietnam, Phu Quoc has – until recently – been a well-kept secret among backpackers and locals alike. These days, it’s set to become the next big thing in Vietnamese beach resorts. And, as we’re the first UK airline to fly there, you’re in a prime position to enjoy its desert-island style sands, forest-cloaked hills and first-rate diving.

Thanks to its position in the Gulf of Thailand, Phu Quoc lays claim to some of Vietnam’s best beaches. Its headline act is the aptly-named Long Beach – a 12-mile sweep of flour-white sand, backed by rows of palms and restaurants. And it’s got plenty of pin drop-peaceful patches tucked up its sleeve. Lots of the beaches in the north can only be accessed through forest tracks, so total seclusion is guaranteed.

Away from the coast, it’s a completely different story. In fact, 90% of the island is covered in forest. Over 31,000 hectares of that is dedicated to Phu Quoc National Park. Here, walking trails lace through mangroves, past streams and up mountains.

You can tailor-make your time in Vietnam with our Multi-Centre getaways. Pair a beach break in Phu Quoc with a city stay in places like Ho Chi Minh City. Or combine it with one of our action-packed tours, which line up sights like the floating markets of the Mekong Delta, the historic Cu Chi tunnels, and the world-famous Angkor Wat temple, which is across the border in Cambodia.
