    The squid fishing...

    The squid fishing activity is only for about 1 hour. Too short. No visitor catch any squid except for the crew themselves. We leave the harbor about 5.45pm and we are back to harbour before 9pm. Cant enjoy the sunset also.

    More time needed for fishing.

    Communication prior to the tour was excellent, I asked for a pick from a different hotel then was listed and my request was accepted. All information provided by the tour guide was very clear. The only negative I have is that before we could start squid fishing we had to wait for everyone to say if they wanted pre-dinner oysters and snails, these would be cooked and were and additional charge. On our departure there were quite a few that wanted this and it took a long time for these orders to be done. Had they come around while we were fishing we may have had an extra 45 minutes of fishing. The main meal was ok and consisted of noodles, cooked prawns, squid soup and watermelon. The actual fishing time was not all that long so unfortunately we did not catch any squid but a few others did.

    Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phu Quoc.

    How much does Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner cost?

    +

    Prices start at $25 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Phu Quoc usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Phu Quoc is not rushed.

    Is Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 60 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.7/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Phu Quoc, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Phu Quoc can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Phu Quoc and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Phu Quoc within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Phu Quoc?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Phu Quoc experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full-Day Private Guided Tour in Phu Quoc Island with Hotel Pick Up, Land 4: Sightseeing to the South of Phu Quoc, Trekking Tien Son Dinh Phu Quoc. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Phu Quoc?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Phu Quoc?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner?

    +

    Included: Hotel pick-up and drop off ( in central); 1 bottle of mineral water; Local fishing equipment and bait; Set menu dinner; and Guide and crew: In-person: English. Not included: Tip. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 133 listed pickup locations in and around Phu Quoc. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Exploring Phu Quoc Sunset and Night Squid Fishing with Dinner wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
