What should I pack when moving to Phú Quoc Island?

Answer this Question

We asked people living in Phú Quoc Island to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"When moving to Phú Quoc Island, it's essential to pack lightweight and breathable clothing due to the tropical climate. Include items such as shorts, t-shirts, and sundresses, as well as a light jacket or sweater for cooler evenings. Don't forget your swimwear, as the island is known for its beautiful beaches. Pack a good pair of walking shoes or sandals suitable for exploring the island and its natural attractions. A hat, sunglasses, and high SPF sunscreen are must-haves to protect yourself from the sun. Remember to bring any necessary prescription medications, as well as a basic first aid kit. It's also a good idea to pack insect repellent to ward off mosquitoes. If you plan on using electronic devices, bring a power adapter suitable for Vietnam's 220V, Type A, C, or D outlets. Pack a reusable water bottle to stay hydrated and help reduce plastic waste on the island. Bring enough cash for your initial days, as ATMs might not be readily available everywhere. Lastly, don't forget your passport, visa, and any other necessary travel documents. It's also a good idea to have copies of these documents in case of loss or theft," commented one expat who made the move to Phú Quoc Island, Vietnam.
