Entering the summer tourist season, the number of domestic and foreign tourists flocking to Phu Quoc Island is quite large. In addition to prominent locations such as Sao Beach, Dai Beach or Hon Thom, many tourists come to Rach Vem fishing village to enjoy the rustic, peaceful space and explore the "starfish kingdom" amidst the crystal clear water.
Sao Beach has a long stretch of fine white sand and clear blue water like jade and is one of the tourist destinations that visitors cannot miss when coming to Phu Quoc.

Located more than 20 km north of Duong Dong town center, Rach Vem fishing village is a pristine destination, featuring floating wooden bridges, floating houses on the sea and especially red starfish living naturally. Every year, from June to October, red starfish appear in this area, creating a unique scene, attracting many domestic and foreign tourists to come and admire the starfish here.
To get to the starfish area, visitors have to travel by canoe for about 5 minutes.

Along with starfish watching, night squid fishing is becoming an exploration choice for many tourists when coming to the pearl island. This experience brings an exciting feeling when tourists can drift in the middle of the night sea, directly catch fresh squid and enjoy the fruits of their labor.

Squid fishing offers a relaxing, memorable experience for visitors of all ages.
Depending on the season, squid fishing can be at Duong Dong port (dry season) or Bai Sao port (rainy season). In the cool and peaceful atmosphere of the night sea, the gentle sound of waves and the moonlight reflecting on the water, squid fishing brings a relaxing and memorable experience for visitors of all ages.
With eco-tourism activities close to nature such as starfish watching and night squid fishing, Phu Quoc is gradually promoting its tourism strengths associated with nature conservation and local culture.
However, to preserve the pristine beauty of Rach Vem fishing village and the island ecosystem, the tourism industry of Kien Giang province calls on visitors to raise awareness of environmental protection, not to touch or move starfish when taking photos, and to comply with safety regulations when participating in activities at sea.
