#cheaptravel

If you’re looking for a tropical escape that isn’t overrun with tourists, let me put Phu Quoc (Vietnam!) on your travel list.

here’s what you need to know 👇

📍where is it?
Phu Quoc is a Vietnamese island in the Gulf of Thailand, just off the coast of Cambodia, think turquoise water, palm trees, and golden beaches.

who’s it for?
🌴 beach lovers: endless stretches of sand, crystal-clear water, and epic sunsets
🐠 snorkeling & diving fans: coral reefs, colorful fish, and island-hopping tours
🍜 foodies: fresh seafood, night markets, and delicious Vietnamese street food
🧘♀️ chill seekers: laid-back beach vibes, luxury resorts, and wellness retreats

🛂 visa-free stay
Most nationalities (including EU, UK, US, and Australia) can visit Phu Quoc visa-free for up to 30 days if arriving directly to the island.

🚨 is it safe?
Yes! I felt completely safe, locals are friendly, and the island has a relaxed, welcoming vibe.

💸 budget-friendly
You can enjoy tropical island life without the Bali or Maldives price tag:
• local meals from $2
• beachside hotels from $15/night
• scooter rental ~$6/day
• island tours from $15

✈️ bottom line
Phu Quoc is beautiful, laid-back, safe, and still relatively undiscovered. Paradise doesn’t have to break the bank.
