The whole site has recently been renovated, and inside you&#8217;ll find parking, restrooms and what amounts to a small theme park built around the falls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To reach the waterfall itself, you&#8217;ll climb a long stretch of stairs running parallel to the river, passing several pools where you can take a dip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The most famous is the last one \u2014 a <strong>pretty little pool of cool, crystal-clear water<\/strong>, perfect for washing off the sweat the walk up has almost certainly earned you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Visitor information<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open: Daily from 7:00 am to 5:00 pm<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Entrance: Adults 30,000 VND (~US$1.15).

Explore Phu Quoc by motorbike<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For us, <strong>the best way to explore an island like Phu Quoc is to rent a motorbike and roam it&nbsp;at your own pace.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Surprisingly, despite being a big island, it has a <strong>good road network<\/strong> that lets you get from one side to the other relatively quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The real fun, though, is getting lost down the many dirt tracks and smaller roads, which lead to simple little villages, beaches and places far less trodden by tourism in general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to rent a motorbike?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We rented a motorbike through our accommodation for 150,000 VND (~US$5.80) a day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That said, almost any accommodation or agency you come across offers this service, especially if you&#8217;re staying in Duong Dong. The more days you rent, the cheaper the rate you can get.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_unwind_on_phu_quocs_beaches\"><\/span>4.

It&#8217;s generally clean too, although finding the odd bit of plastic floating by is fairly normal (that happens all over the island).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ba Keo beach is ideal for watching the sunset, mojito in hand<\/strong> \u2014 from the shore, at any of its beach restaurants and bars, or by renting a kayak and enjoying the sunset from out on the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"771\" src=\"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ba-Keo-beach-2.webp\" alt=\"ba keo beach, en duong duong\" class=\"wp-image-3205\" srcset=\"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ba-Keo-beach-2.webp 1024w, https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ba-Keo-beach-2-300x226.webp 300w, https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Ba-Keo-beach-2-768x578.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Starfish Beach<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>One of the best beaches in Phu Quoc<\/strong> is, without question, Starfish Beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Located in the north of the island, reaching Starfish Beach is no easy feat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To get there, follow the paved road to the village of Rach Vem, after which a long stretch of dirt track \u2014 currently under construction \u2014 still awaits you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coming from the center of the island (Long Beach or Duong Dong), brace yourself for a good hour and a half of travel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you don&#8217;t ride, we recommend booking an excursion with any agency in Duong Dong, or you can book one online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once there, you&#8217;ll find several seafood restaurants \u2014 and we&#8217;re fairly sure a few people will approach you offering a boat trip to the most famous part of the beach, where the starfish gather in the greatest numbers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You&#8217;ll spot plenty of starfish in many parts of Phu Quoc, but the sheer concentration in this corner of the island is what gave the beach its fame and its name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One request: please don&#8217;t be that tourist who pulls starfish out of the sea, dumps them on the sand and lets them dry in the sun just for Instagram photos. Try not to touch them at all \u2014 just admire their natural beauty in the water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"771\" src=\"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/starfish-beach-phu-quoc-1024x771.webp\" alt=\"Starfish Beach\" class=\"wp-image-3169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/starfish-beach-phu-quoc-1024x771.webp 1024w, https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/starfish-beach-phu-quoc-300x226.webp 300w, https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/starfish-beach-phu-quoc-768x578.webp 768w, https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/starfish-beach-phu-quoc-1536x1157.webp 1536w, https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/starfish-beach-phu-quoc-2048x1542.webp 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_hon_thom_cable_car_and_sun_world_phu_quoc\"><\/span>5.

Llegu\u00e9 a Vietnam por primera vez en 2019 despu\u00e9s de pasar el dengue en Camboya. No era el mejor contexto para enamorarse de un pa\u00eds y como era de esperar, Vietnam no me dijo gran cosa. Estuve tres d\u00edas y me fui convencido de que aquello no ten\u00eda mucho que ofrecerme. Unos meses despu\u00e9s decid\u00ed volver para darle una segunda oportunidad al pa\u00eds, por pura intuici\u00f3n. Result\u00f3 ser una de las mejores decisiones de viaje que he tomado, lo cual demuestra que a veces conviene desconfiar de las primeras impresiones. Desde entonces he vuelto cada a\u00f1o, hasta convertir Vietnam actualmente en uno de mis lugares principales de residencia, donde paso buena parte del a\u00f1o instalado en Ho Chi Minh City, y desde donde aprovecho para seguir recorriendo el pa\u00eds por dentro, con m\u00e1s calma y bastante menos fiebre. Adem\u00e1s de viajar por mi cuenta, mi pasion por llevar mis viajes a otros, me llevo a crear Aventurate a Viajar, una agencia de viajes en grupo desde donde coordino y dise\u00f1o viajes en grupo por Vietnam y otros muchos pa\u00edses.\",\"sameAs\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/viajarvietnam.com\\\/quienes-somos\\\/\",\"https:\\\/\\\/www.instagram.com\\\/rekuenk\"],\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/viajarvietnam.com\\\/en\"}]}<\/script>\n<!-- \/ Yoast SEO plugin. -->","yoast_head_json":{"title":"10 best things to do in Phu Quoc, Vietnam's largest island -

A lo largo de los a\u00f1os he recorrido buena parte del continente asi\u00e1tico y tambi\u00e9n extensas zonas de Am\u00e9rica. Llegu\u00e9 a Vietnam por primera vez en 2019 despu\u00e9s de pasar el dengue en Camboya. No era el mejor contexto para enamorarse de un pa\u00eds y como era de esperar, Vietnam no me dijo gran cosa. Estuve tres d\u00edas y me fui convencido de que aquello no ten\u00eda mucho que ofrecerme. Unos meses despu\u00e9s decid\u00ed volver para darle una segunda oportunidad al pa\u00eds, por pura intuici\u00f3n. Result\u00f3 ser una de las mejores decisiones de viaje que he tomado, lo cual demuestra que a veces conviene desconfiar de las primeras impresiones. Desde entonces he vuelto cada a\u00f1o, hasta convertir Vietnam actualmente en uno de mis lugares principales de residencia, donde paso buena parte del a\u00f1o instalado en Ho Chi Minh City, y desde donde aprovecho para seguir recorriendo el pa\u00eds por dentro, con m\u00e1s calma y bastante menos fiebre. Adem\u00e1s de viajar por mi cuenta, mi pasion por llevar mis viajes a otros, me llevo a crear Aventurate a Viajar, una agencia de viajes en grupo desde donde coordino y dise\u00f1o viajes en grupo por Vietnam y otros muchos pa\u00edses.","sameAs":["https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/quienes-somos\/","https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/rekuenk"],"url":"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/en"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5291","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5291"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5291\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5358,"href":"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5291\/revisions\/5358"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5292"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/viajarvietnam.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5291"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
