Beautiful Beach and not much people. Beach is rather clean with 2 restaurant beside. There's jet ski, banana boat or para gliding avail... The water is shallow and you can walk more than 50m from the shore and see small fishes....
Phu Quoc Island is a small island about 50 kilometers north and south, surrounded by the sea, the whole island has beautiful beaches, the sea is green and blue, the water quality is very clear, super suitable for leisurely emptying here. And the sunset on Phu Quoc Island is super charming, you who like to enjoy the sunset, you must not miss it here.
The beach is located in the middle of the two mountains, the curved mountains are close to the sea, the climate is pleasant, and it is super suitable for vacation! The breeze is blowing, lying on the beach lounge chair or the hammock swaying on the coconut tree, I am willing to live on vacation when I come.
sun-clapped, serene and surreal. swimming around the oasis is recommended
The beach is very clean, a good place to travel, you can go for a walk if you have the opportunity
This is the legendary white beach, disappointed, very remote, there is nothing to eat around, it is not easy to take a taxi, the driver came to the taxi and said how you found such a remote place, it is really amazing 😅
Before I came to the white beach, I was actually quite entangled. Because I read many people's comments, I found that he became very commercial. But when you really arrive, you will find that many people's comments are written one-sided. First of all, we must explain that the white sand beach is not charged, it is completely free, but everyone's entry point is different. If you enter from the position of Figure 4, it must be charged, but everyone walk forward and see Figures 5 and 6, it is free to enter the entire white sand beach from these two points, and parking is free. Secondly, the sand on the white sand beach is really fine and the water is particularly clear. Standing on the beach of Lushan, facing the sea, the sand on the left hand side is getting finer and thicker, and the sand on the right hand side is getting thicker. At the same time, commercialization is also more serious on the left hand side. For example, the last swing will be charged, and a recliner will also be charged. But the swing and lounge chair charges are clearly priced, so you don't have to worry about it. The third white beach has not really become so commercialized, and some of the amusement facilities above are bargaining. It is not much better than the domestic Sanya Bay. Fourth, because the white sand beach is located on the east side of Phu Quoc Island, everyone will see it in the afternoon, when the sun is on the west side, in the state of holy light, the water will be particularly clear. Fifth, you may be far away by motorcycle to the white sand beach. You may wish to visit Huguo Temple and Phu Quoc Island Prison together. I hope my introduction will let you know a real white sand beach and have a good experience on the white sand beach.
