At least 15 Indian tourists were killed after a boat carrying visitors capsized off Vietnam's southern island of Phu Quoc recently.
About Phu Quoc Island:
Phu Quoc, also known as Pearl Island, is a Vietnamese island located in the Gulf of Thailand.
It is famous for its stretches of white sand beaches.
A large part of the island is protected under Phú Quốc National Park, which is recognized as a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve.
The highest point on the island is located on Mount Chua.
Tropical Phu Quoc has just two seasons – six months of dry, sunny weather between November and April and six rainy months between May and October.
The island’s cultural identity remains deeply rooted in its maritime heritage, with traditional fishing villages like Ham Ninh maintaining age-old customs.
It is also famous for producing fish sauce (nước mắm) and black pepper, both of which are important local products.
