Phu Quoc ranks eighth among top 25 places to visit globally in 2025, according to Channel News Asia.

The Singaporean media outlet shortlisted 25 places worth travelling to by gathering insight from numerous experts; unpacking lifestyle trends; identifying cultural milestones; as well as looking at new flights, hotels, trains, and cruises that collectively work as a pull factor to a particular destination.

In eighth position, Phu Quoc, Vietnam’s largest island, is praised for its stunning beaches, lush mountain landscapes, and unspoiled forests teeming with diverse flora and fauna. The island also offers an array of activities for nature enthusiasts.

Its accessibility through direct flights and the availability of accommodations catering to all budgets, from budget-friendly stays to luxurious five-star hotels, makes Phu Quoc an attractive and versatile travel destination.
