Phu Quoc Island is a fantastic destination for water sports and activities. The crystal-clear waters and vibrant coral reefs offer something for every adventurer.

Here are the most popular water activities you can enjoy:


Underwater Exploration

  • Snorkeling: This is one of the most popular activities, especially around the smaller islands in the south like Kim Quy Island (Golden Turtle Island), Gam Ghi Island, and Buom Island. Many tours are available, often combining island hopping with snorkeling sessions.

  • Scuba Diving: Phu Quoc is home to some of the best coral reefs in Vietnam, making it a great spot for diving. The North and South islands offer unique ecosystems to explore.

  • Sea Walking (Seawalker): A unique experience where you wear a special helmet that allows you to walk on the seabed and explore the coral reefs and marine life without needing to swim or wear heavy diving gear. Popular locations include the Nautilus Coral Park area.


High-Adrenaline & Thrill Sports

  • Jet Skiing (Water Motobike): For speed enthusiasts, jet skis are readily available at major beaches, often offered as part of island tour packages.

  • Parasailing: Get a bird's-eye view of the stunning coastline as you glide high above the water. This is a thrilling activity often found at places like Hon Thom Island or as part of tour combos.

  • Flyboarding: A relatively new and exciting sport where water propulsion lifts you up to 10 meters above the sea surface, allowing you to perform flips and dives. This is often available at beaches like Bai Sao (Sao Beach).

  • Banana Boat/Inflatable Rides: A classic group activity where you ride a large inflatable banana or similar shape towed by a speedboat.


Leisure & Cruise Activities

  • Kayaking/SUP (Stand-Up Paddleboarding): Enjoy a leisurely paddle in calm waters. Kayaking is especially popular in the tranquil setting of the Cua Can River on the island's northern side, or around the beaches of major resorts.

  • Island Hopping Tours: These full-day or half-day tours by speedboat or fishing boat typically include stops at multiple islands for swimming, sunbathing, and snorkeling.

  • Night Squid Fishing: A unique evening excursion where you join local fishermen to try your hand at catching squid, often followed by an onboard dinner where your catch is cooked.

  • Sunset Cruises: Relaxing boat trips to watch the beautiful Phu Quoc sunset, often including dinner or drinks.

Hon Thom Cable Car

The Hon Thom Cable Car in Phu Quoc, Vietnam, is a remarkable attraction, holding the Guinness World Record for the world's longest non-stop three-rope sea-crossing cable car.

Spanning approximately 7.9 kilometers over the turquoise waters of the An Thoi archipelago, the 15-minute journey offers breathtaking panoramic views of islands, fishing boats, and coral reefs. It connects the mainland at An Thoi Station (with its stunning Colosseum-like architecture) to Hon Thom Island (Pineapple Island), which is home to the Sun World Hon Thom Nature Park and the Aquatopia Water Park. The cable car is an essential experience for visitors to Southern Phu Quoc.
