Phu Quoc - Koh Tang & Offshore

Phu Quoc, out in the Koh Tang archipelago, feels like a proper step back in time. You’re diving untouched reef here, the islands themselves still pretty much undeveloped. It’s early days for tourism, so you get that rare sense of exploring somewhere genuinely new, without the crowds. We've found the coral here healthy, with plenty of reef fish going about their business. If you’re into pioneering dives and don't mind a longer boat ride for a bit of solitude, this one's for you.
