Every part of the city around the corner is like a picture and a paradise found for a photographer. You’ll be charmed by the atmosphere of the town during a walk, like in some European seaside village. And oh, there is still that An Thoi Cable Car Station, which is more of a free taste experience than an advertisement of just how good far-reaching views could be. Phu Quoc Prison (Coconut Tree Prison)

The next stop in the path of this visit is the infamous Coconut Tree Prison, also known as Phu Quoc Prison, and a journey into the bygone days.

Sao Beach
Sao Beach
When the time comes to kick back, there’s no better place than the serene Sao Beach.

This is the best way to end our Southern Phu Quoc Sightseeing tour and make it unforgettable.

By 9:00 AM, we make a stop in the very picturesque An Thoi Town, which is inspired by Mediterranean features.

A truly magical start to our day on Phu Quoc Island.
We will also go on a tour to Poignant Past at 10:00 AM as we visit the island’s haunting prison camp called Phu Quoc Prison, more known to some as Coconut Tree Prison.

As you walk through the prison grounds, our guide will show and narrate to you the moving stories of the prisoners who went through great hardships here. Preserved artifacts with detailed displays show emotionally and powerfully this dark chapter in history. This is one stop that adds depth and understanding to your Southern Phu Quoc Sightseeing Tour.
Continuing at about 11:00 AM, we visit one of the well-known Phu Quoc fish sauce factories to see how this traditionally prepared harmonious sauce is made. A guided tour will cover all the processes, starting from choosing the best anchovies to long fermentation in big wooden barrels. You will taste the fish sauce just made and meet the locals producing this product with passion. Remember to buy one or two bottles for a unique souvenir of your travel experience in Phu Quoc Island.

Afternoon: We start the latter half of our tour at 2:30 PM with the majestic Ho Quoc Pagoda biggest and most important pagoda that exists on the entire Phu Quoc Island.

Whether you are here to meditate, take photos, or simply enjoy the peaceful atmosphere- Ho Quoc Pagoda is one of the tour highlights for the Southern Phu Quoc Sightseeing Tour that you cannot miss.

Now, let’s delve into the rich history that Southern Phu Quoc has in store for visitors. One of the most seminal Southern Phu Quoc landmarks is Phu Quoc Prison, also known as Coconut Tree Prison. This is a very important historical site to the struggle for independence of Vietnam; it serves as a touch-and-go reminder of the resilience and courage of those who were imprisoned there. Walking through the somber grounds, you find exhibits and displays telling a horror tale of the prisoners. This place has a very strong pull on culturally curious travelers who want to delve deep into Vietnam’s past. The visit to Phu Quoc Prison is much more than the emotional journey that takes one back in time and offers a very different perspective on the island’s role in the country’s history.
Barbarously speaking, Southern Phu Quoc is no less than heaven itself. Sao Beach must be representing one of the most beautiful attractions in Phu Quoc: the financial powder-white sand and crystal-clear water characterization come first. This is a beach for people who want to stay in solitude or even with nature. Its gentle waves and tranquil atmosphere make it an ideal spot to swim, sunbathe, or just simply enjoy the View. Not far away, the Ho Quoc Pagoda allows for spiritual succor and great views, too. Sitting atop a hill, this pagoda is an architectural wonder, merging into the natural beauty that fits it. Preservation of these sightseeing places is important in that they reflect the virgin charm of Phu Quoc Island Travel. This, in turn, will serve as a form of protection for these natural wonders so that future generations can enjoy them, still virgin to this day, and include Southern Phu Quoc.
Of course, no Southern Phu Quoc Sightseeing Tour would be complete without diving into the island’s rich cultural tapestry. Visiting the traditional fish sauce factories provides a look into one of Phu Quoc’s most famous exports. You will be able to witness here in detail the process of making fish sauce, an art that has been passed down to generations. It is not mere observation but interaction with local people and understanding of the cultural importance of fish sauce in Vietnamese cuisine. There are also opportunities where one can shop for genuine products, allowing you to take a piece of Phu Quoc Island Travel back home.
Southern Phu Quoc is famous besides fish sauce for its local crafts and locally made products, which range from handmade souvenirs to local-made products. The possibilities are endless to soak in the island’s cultural identity. These will make you exchange the cultural understanding of every tradition that defines Phu Quoc Island.
Of course, no experience of traveling in the modern age would be complete without taking that perfect snap, and Southern Phu Quoc is full of places that beg for an #insta photo shoot. Perhaps most iconic among these will be the so-called Sunset Sanato, featuring a backdrop that is as stunning as it is unique. This place is well-known to photographers and social network users for its art installation and breathtaking sunsets. Giant sculptures in wood dotting the shoreline create a surreal and capturing scene, literally making any shot a potential masterpiece.
To fully maximize your visit, try to arrive a little before the sun sets to scope out the best angles. Posing with sculptures or framing fiery hues of a setting sun, this is surely one of the must-see spots on the Southern Phu Quoc Sightseeing Tour. Beyond the Sun Set Sanato, the whole region seems to be full of picturesque whether it is with the colorful streets of An Thoi or Ho Quoc Pagoda with its serene beauty.
