There are two ways to go to Phu Quoc. Firstly, tourists go by plane from Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City. Secondly, they can go by high-speed train.

As many people know, Phu Quoc is very famous for ridgeback dogs. The Phu Quoc Ridgeback dog is one of only three breeds that have a ridge of hair that runs along its back in the opposite direction to the rest of the coat. This breed’s ability is to run, jump, and swim faster than most other breeds. Also, ridgeback dogs are very adorable, especially puppies. 

Besides the special breed of dog, Phu Quoc is also well-known with pepper. Planting pepper appeared in Phu Quoc for hundreds year ago and it becomes traditional work in Phu Quoc. Phu Quoc pepper is spicy and hot, especially red pepper. Planting pepper in Phu Quoc is different from other places. The farmers rarely use chemical fertilizer. Every year, root of pepper tree is banked with new soil that is digged from garden edge in order to modify nutrition used or washed away. That way makes pepper trees grow naturally.

Coming to Phu Quoc, tourists can visit Ganh Dau - a communce in the northwest of Phu Quoc island with pristine beaches and charming landscapes. If not, tourists can go to Bai Dai beach (“the long beach” in Vietnamese) stretching 15 kilometers to the northwest. This is a beautiful beach with fine and clean sand and the ocean water with mild temperatures.

In addition, travelers cannot miss the most beautiful beach on the island – Sao beach. It deserves to be one of five most beautiful beaches in the world.
