Phu Quoc's most beautiful beach — powdery white sand in a protected eastern bay

Sao Beach (Bai Sao) is consistently ranked among Vietnam's finest beaches — a compact, crescent-shaped bay on Phu Quoc's southeastern coast with exceptionally fine white sand and unusually clear turquoise water. Unlike the west coast beaches, Sao faces east and is sheltered from the southwest monsoon, meaning it retains calm, swimmable conditions through most of the year. The beach is only about 1 kilometre long, which helps maintain its intimate scale. Several open-air seafood restaurants and beach bars operate directly on the sand, serving fresh fish and cold drinks with open views of the bay. Sao Beach is a 30-minute drive from Duong Dong town and is typically visited as a half-day trip.
