Sao Beach

The beach is absolutely stunning. White sand, amazing water, Beautiful clean nature.. I can spend hours here. One thing to be aware of- they gonna charge you 100k for bed even if you order to drink from the restaurant. It’s about 30 minutes drive from centre.

Sao Beach is a lovely spot to relax and soak in the tropical vibe. The water is warm, calm, and perfect for a peaceful swim – no big waves, just chill. The beach itself is clean and pretty, with soft sand and space to unwind. It’s not overly crowded, which makes it even more enjoyable if you’re looking to escape the noise and just enjoy some quiet time by the sea. Great place to bring a book, go for a swim, or simply lie back and recharge. One of the calmer beaches we’ve been to – definitely worth a visit if you’re after relaxation.

This is a gorgeous beach but not very big. In my opinion NOT the best in Phu Quoc and yes, it is full of trash! PQ island has a list of “ best beaches” but for some reason, the best ones I have found are the ones off the map that I accidently found exploring. The unknown beaches. This one was crowded and small. Took me 40 min both ways to walk it entirely. Again,I agree with other reviews that it is full of trash. Most public beaches in Vietnam are. The only clean areas belong to resorts but this beach has mostly beach clubs that only keep their spot clean. Others businesses don’t bother .The swings and decorative bridge to your left belong yo the beach club bar and you have to pay to take pictures there! You also have to pay for bathrooms and showers… what a joke! There is a Highland Coffee shop( popular coffee chain in Vietnam) right at the entrance!

Beautiful, clean, white - perfect! I've never seen such a clean and tidy beach as this one! The water is great for swimming, and on the water there is a charming floating restaurant (Bè Nắng - Quán Ăn Trên Bè) that offers some of the finest seafood in the city in a magical setting! This beach is a must-see! Highly recommended!

🌴 Sao Beach – A Slice of Paradise with Room to Improve 🏖️ Sao Beach in Phu Quoc is absolutely stunning with its powdery white sand and turquoise waters — it truly looks like a postcard! 📸 It’s a great spot to relax, swim, or take beautiful photos. The beach is surrounded by palm trees and has a peaceful vibe, especially in the early morning or late afternoon. 🌅 However, it’s worth noting that some areas could use better maintenance. There have been reports of litter, especially during peak times, which takes away from the natural beauty. Hopefully, more efforts will be made to keep this gem clean. 🧹🌊 🍽️ Paradiso Restaurant – Beachfront Dining with a View 🌺 Located right on Sao Beach, Paradiso Restaurant offers a relaxed, beachfront dining experience. The views are unbeatable — you can enjoy your meal with your feet in the sand and the sea breeze in your hair. 🌬️🍹 The menu features fresh seafood, Vietnamese dishes, and tropical drinks. While the food is decent and the setting is lovely, some reviews mention that prices are a bit high for the quality, and service can be slow during busy hours. Still, it’s a great place to chill after a swim or grab a drink while watching the waves. 🐟🍤🍍.

Absolutely stunning beach comparable to Roatan in the Caribbean. Crystal clear water and white sand. Really pretty.

The beach is absolutely stunning, with soft white sand and crystal-clear blue water. We stayed near Paradiso Restaurant, rented a beach chair, and spent most of the day relaxing there. There are also a variety of water sports available for those looking to explore. One downside was that my husband was bitten by sand flies, so it’s a good idea to apply insect repellent beforehand. Additionally, some areas of the beach had quite a bit of rubbish, likely a result of the typhoon that hit at the end of 2024. That said, none of these issues take away from the natural beauty of this incredible place.

The cleanest beach and most clear blue water we had found on the water - definitely worth the trip! If you are using Google maps, don’t follow it through to the end - as it leads you do a private beach where they make you pay for the beach chairs immediately, without letting you to explore other parts of the beach.
