“ lekhac: The village is quite beautiful although Phu Quoc is now overdeveloped for tourism. Should go here in the afternoon and especially in the season of starfish” 

Nathan Ruan: Luckily arrived at the fishing village on a cool afternoon. The air was fresh and airy. The locals enthusiastically showed us where to park our vehicles to visit the fishing village. All free!”

phuong: Going to Rach Vem fishing village is a memorable trip because it is nearly 10km of dirt road, I went during the rainy season so it was quite difficult and miserable. However, this place is still very wild and has a rustic beauty. Coming here, you will be able to check in the wooden bridges that go straight to the sea, which are very beautiful (but note that all wooden bridges cost a fee, if you don't have lunch, go to the water shop and you will be able to go to the bridge to take virtual photos; or you go to the hut to eat seafood like me, there will be a very long wooden bridge to go there). The food outside the hut is very cheap, the seafood is fresh, sitting and eating, enjoying the cool breeze, and watching the scenery is wonderful; you also get a bonus of free music from many karaoke singers around here:)))))”
