As the largest island in Vietnam it is no surprise that Phu Quoc is a favourite destination amongst travellers to the region.
Being a huge tourist attraction, the Vietnamese government introduced a free visa for those wishing to visit for up to 30 days, a great initiative which may tourists are taking advantage of.
The island is famous for two exports, fish sauce made from the abundant anchovy stock found off the coast of the island and also black pepper, which is cultivated inland and considered one of the best black peppers in the world.
Phu Quoc is predominantly a National Park and protected marine environment which ensures the natural environment will remain untouched for years to come.
