  64. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  65. Long Beach is easily navigated on foot with walking distance, but we
  66. highly recommend you taking a motorbike or bicycle to explore
  67. traditional fishing villages and pearl farms, wchich is located on the
  68. southern end of the beach. As Long Beach is located on the west coast of
  69. Phu Quoc Island, many travellers usually make their way here during the
  70. late afternoon to enjoy breathtaking sunset views. It’s also an ideal
  71. place for sunbathing, snorkelling, and swimming, especially for those
  72. staying at the high-end hotels abd resorts.&lt;/p&gt;
  73. &lt;ol&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot; value=&quot;4&quot;&gt;
  74. &lt;strong&gt;Suoi Tranh Waterfall&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;

  86. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  87. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can hike further up from the main
  88. waterfall site to visit Hang Doi (Grotto of Bats), which measures 200
  89. metres in height and houses unique stalactites. Due to its close
  90. proximity to the main town, Suoi Tranh Waterfall is usually packed with

  204. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What is the Best Time to visit Phu Quoc Island Vietnam?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  205. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  206. Being a tropical weather island near the equator and located in the
  207. Gulf of Thailand, Phu Quoc has quite different climatic features. The
  208. island has two seasons: the dry season and the rainy season.&lt;/p&gt;
  209. &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  210. The dry season in Phu Quoc: From late October to mid-May is the dry
  211. season in Phu Quoc. At this time, when the rains have ceased and the
  212. waves are not too intense.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  213. The rainy season in Phu Quoc: May to early October is the rainy season
  214. in Phu Quoc. Located at the gateway to receive the monsoon West –
  215. Southwest, the air humidity is often remarkably high.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
  216. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  217. There’s constant rain with strong waves that hinder traffic from the
  218. mainland to the island. Sudden rains, which are not too long but heavy,
  219. can cause danger to people on the road.&lt;/p&gt;
  220. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  221. In particular, it can be difficult to explore on rainy days because of slippery roads and limited visibility.&lt;/p&gt;
  222. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  223. Typhoon period in Phu Quoc: From July to September is the typhoon
  224. season in Phu Quoc. At this time, the rain and storms are often
  225. unexpected. Rain and wind are intense, and the streets are likely to be
  226. flooded with limited traffic on the sea.&lt;/p&gt;
  227. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  228. The best time to visit Phu Quoc Island is from October to March. During
  229. this period, it’s less rainy, and the waves are smooth, so it’s
  230. convenient for taking a ferry from Rach Gia to Phu Quoc.&lt;/p&gt;
  231. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  232. Please note that it’s also a peak travel season in Phu Quoc. Therefore,
  233. if you travel at this time, you should book your flight tickets and
  234. hotels in advance.&lt;/p&gt;
  235. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  236. &lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 16px;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How to get from Ho Chi Minh City to Phu Quoc Island?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
  237. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  238. This guide will give you some options on how to get from Ho Chi Minh to
  239. Phu Quoc Island. There are several ways that you can do this – by
  240. plane, by bus and ferry, as well as by private hire taxi.&lt;/p&gt;
  241. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  242. The trip from Ho Chi Minh City to Phu Quoc will take around 10.5 hours
  243. by bus and ferry, 7.5 hours by private transfer (taxi) or if you are
  244. flying then the flight time is around 1 hour but you will need to allow
  245. further time for airport transfers and negotiating the airports.&lt;/p&gt;
  246. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  247. The distance between Ho Chi Minh City and Phu Quoc is 378km in total
  248. and depending on your preferred method of transport the costs can range
  249. from USD19 to USD250 one-way.&lt;/p&gt;
  250. &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  251. &lt;strong&gt;Flights from Ho Chi Minh to Phu Quoc:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
  252. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  253. There are currently three operators that have daily flights from Ho Chi
  254. Minh to Phu Quoc, namely Vietnam Airlines, JetStar Pacific and VietJet
  255. Air.&lt;/p&gt;
  256. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  257. Vietnam Airlines have 3 daily flights from Ho Chi Minh&#39;s Tan Son Nhat
  258. International Airport (SGN) which is located about 6km (4 miles) north
  259. of the city centre. Flight prices are definitely leave much to be
  260. desired and start from USD100 one-way but USD125-150 looks more
  261. realistic. This is, however, the most expensive option.&lt;/p&gt;
  262. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  263. JetStar Pacific operate 4 more competitively priced daily flights with
  264. prices starting from about USD50 and flights leaving between 6.10am and
  265. 7.40pm.&lt;/p&gt;
  266. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  267. The last but not least is VietJet which provides the cheapest option to
  268. fly between Ho Chi Minh&#39;s Tan Son Nhat International Airport and Phu
  269. Quoc International Airport (PQC) – sometimes referred to as Duong Dang
  270. Airport. VietJet have 3 flights daily with prices starting from just
  271. USD30.&lt;/p&gt;
  272. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  273. Once you arrive in Phu Quoc, you will discover that the transfer time
  274. to Duong Dang Town is very quick as the airport is only a few kilometres
  275. away. If you have a pre-booked hotel somewhere else on the island then
  276. transfer time may be a little longer though.&lt;/p&gt;
  277. &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  278. &lt;strong&gt;From Ho Chi Minh to Phu Quoc by bus and ferry via Rach Gia&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
  279. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  280. There are two ports that run ferry services to Phu Quoc, Rach Gia and
  281. Ha Tien. The fastest and most efficient way to get from Ho Chi Minh City
  282. (Saigon) to Phu Quoc is to use the Superdong fast boat service from
  283. Rach Gia Ferry Port. To do this you will first need to get a bus from
  284. Mien Tay Bus Terminal in Ho Chi Minh to Kien Giang Bus Station in Rach
  285. Gia. The journey will take about 7 hours at a cost of around USD7. Buses
  286. leave hourly between 1am and 11.30pm.&lt;/p&gt;
  287. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  288. Inconveniently, Kien Giang Bus Station in Rach Gia is located 7km
  289. southeast of the city centre in Rach Soi so you will need to get a taxi
  290. to Rach Gia pier on arrival. Once you arrive at the pier you can then
  291. buy your ferry ticket at the Superdong office, which is located behind
  292. the pier at 14 Tu Do Street.&lt;/p&gt;
  293. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  294. Note While there are many other vendors selling Superdong tickets
  295. around the pier, it is best to buy your ticket direct from the operator
  296. and you will need to show them your passport before they will give you
  297. the ticket.&lt;/p&gt;
  298. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  299. The Superdong service is well known for being comfortable and
  300. efficient. It takes around 2.5 hours to complete the crossing to Phu
  301. Quoc from Rach Gia Pier. Tickets cost around USD15 for an adult and the
  302. service departs at 8am and 1pm daily, subject to good weather
  303. conditions. There are also additional services during the high season
  304. (December to April) at 9am and 12.40pm.&lt;/p&gt;
  305. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  306. On Phu Quoc, you will arrive at Bai Vong Pier, which is on the east
  307. coast of the island and once you are back to firm land, the cheapest way
  308. to get to Duong Dong Town or Long Beach on the west coast is by using
  309. the shuttle bus, which costs USD1.50 per person.&lt;/p&gt;
  310. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  311. Tip: Rach Gia is sometimes referred to as Kien Giang on bus signs and schedules, which can be confusing if you don&#39;t know that!&lt;/p&gt;
  312. &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  313. &lt;strong&gt;From Ho Chi Minh to Phu Quoc by bus and ferry via Ha Tien&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
  314. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  315. If you would prefer to use one of the other ferry services to get to
  316. Phu Quoc then you will need to make your way to Ha Tien first. There are
  317. 2 ways you can get to Ha Tien from Ho Chi Minh City.&lt;/p&gt;
  318. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  319. The first would be to travel overnight using a night sleeper bus
  320. service (Phuong Trang – Futa Bus) from Mien Tay Bus Station to Ha Tien
  321. and then on to the pier itself. The journey time is between 8 and 9
  322. hours and the buses leave at 8.30am, 10.30am, 8.30pm, and 10.30pm at a
  323. cost of USD7.50 per person.&lt;/p&gt;
  324. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  325. The other option is to get the bus from Mien Tay Bus Terminal in Ho Chi
  326. Minh to Kien Giang (Rach Gia) first (about 7 hours at a cost of around
  327. USD7; buses leave hourly between 4am and 11.45pm) and then take a
  328. minibus to Ha Tien, which is 2.5 hours away (USD3). The best option is
  329. the Mai Linh Express air-conditioned buses, which depart hourly between
  330. 4.40am and 8.15pm.&lt;/p&gt;
  331. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  332. When you have arrived at the ferry port in Ha Tien, you then have 2
  333. further options to get to Phu Quoc. You could choose the Superdong fast
  334. service from Ha Tien to Bai Vong Fast Boat Pier in Phu Quoc, which is
  335. the recommended option, provided you don&#39;t have a car. The journey takes
  336. about 1.5 hour and tickets are USD10 per person. The fast Superdong
  337. service leaves from Ha Tien daily at 8am and 2pm. There are also
  338. additional services during the high season (December to April) at
  339. 7.30am, 10.00am and 12.30pm daily.&lt;/p&gt;
  340. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  341. Note: Another point worth making is that if you are travelling by
  342. motorbike then the fast Superdong service is still an option for you at
  343. an additional cost of USD8 per bike.&lt;/p&gt;
  344. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  345. The other ferry service from Ha Tien is the slower car ferry service
  346. operated by Thanh Thoi, which goes to either Vinh Dam Port or Da Chong
  347. Port in Phu Quoc and takes 3.5 hours and 2.5 hours respectively. The car
  348. ferry is large and can accommodate around 400 passengers, 200
  349. motorbikes and up to 20 cars. While there is not generally a need to
  350. book car ferry tickets in advance, it is always a good idea especially
  351. in the high season.&lt;/p&gt;
  352. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  353. The ferry to Vinh Dam Port in the south of Phu Quoc departs at 4.30am,
  354. 7am, 10am, 12.30am daily and tickets cost USD8 per person, USD4 per
  355. motorbike and USD31 if you have a car.&lt;/p&gt;
  356. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  357. If you are planning on going to Da Chong Port in the north of Phu Quoc
  358. then the ferry leaves Ha Tien at 5.30am, 2.30pm, 5pm daily and the
  359. tickets cost the same as the ferry to Vinh Dam Port - USD8 per person,
  360. USD4 per motorbike and USD31 if you have a car.&lt;/p&gt;
  361. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  362. The car ferry is reasonably comfortable and there is plenty of space to
  363. move around on the outside deck or, if you prefer, you can relax inside
  364. on the reclining chairs. There is also a cafe bar on-board where you
  365. can grab drinks and light snacks.&lt;/p&gt;
  366. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  367. After you arrive at either Vinh Dam Port or Da Chong Port in Phu Quoc
  368. you will probably need to get a taxi into Duong Dong Town. If you are
  369. using the fast service or the slow ferry to Vinh Dam Port then this
  370. should only cost a few dollars but from Da Chong Port in the north of
  371. the island it is likely to bit quite a bit more as the distance is
  372. further.&lt;/p&gt;

  375. &lt;p style=&quot;text-align: right;&quot;&gt;
  376. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
