How do tides affect the beaches of Phu Quoc?

Tides on Phu Quoc do not cause major inconveniences on most beaches of the western coast, but on the eastern shore, swimming is impossible during low tide. It is important to understand that the times of high and low tides constantly change and are determined by special forecast tables, and do not depend on the time of day, as some mistakenly believe.

If you stay on the eastern shore of Phu Quoc, be prepared that during low tide, the water recedes hundreds of meters, and swimming becomes impossible. On the western coast, where the main tourist areas are located, this problem is less pronounced.

We recommend checking the current tide schedule before going to the beach. We also have a detailed video about tides on Phu Quoc, where we visually show what it looks like in reality.
