Ly Son Island<\/a> is the only island district in Quang Ngai province, about 16 nautical miles from the mainland. This is the pearl island of Vietnam with unspoiled natural beauty that has not been exploited. Ly Son Island is a place loved by many tourists and chosen to visit during the summer or Tet holidays. To go to Ly Son Island, we need to visit Sa Ky Port to move to the island by speedboat.<\/span><\/p>\n

Today Phu Quoc Express<\/a> will introduce to you the experience of stopping at Sa Ky port 1 day before going to the island for tourism! From Sa Ky port to Ly Son island, you can take the Phu Quoc Express high-speed boat with a travel time of about 35 minutes. The boat will have about 4 trips and returns during the day, the price is about 218,000 VND\/person applied to tourists when buying tickets at the port.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you want to go to Ly Son Island early in the morning, you can choose to stay overnight near Sa Ky Port to buy a speedboat ticket and take the next morning trip. Near Sa Ky Port, there are many clean and fully equipped motels such as air conditioners, hot water machines, hair dryers, etc. with various capacities for you to choose to stop such as: Dai Thanh 1 motel, Sao Mai motel, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you stay in Sa Ky for a vacation, try the culinary experience here! With the advantage of being close to the seaport, with boats coming and going every day, fresh seafood is the strength of Sa Ky cuisine. Opening the door early in the morning, you can easily inhale the very distinctive scent of salty sea breeze mixed with the smell of fish and shrimp from the fish markets along the way to the port. <\/span><\/p>\n

Every time a fishing boat returns, people are busy carrying shrimp and fish from the boat to the market, packing them in boxes and transporting them. A very peaceful and typical scene of the seaport area. Phu Quoc Express once had the opportunity to experience dishes made from fresh seafood in Sa Ky such as parrot fish dipped in vinegar, fresh squid steamed with ginger, stir-fried abalone, etc. It was really very delicious.<\/span><\/p>\n

What to eat when going to Ly Son Island?<\/h2>\n

1. Parrot fish dipped in vinegar:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Parrot fish dipped in fermented rice vinegar with the main ingredient being humpback parrot fish, this type of fish has very few small bones, sweet, soft and juicy meat. Humpback parrot fish meat contains many nutrients that are very good for health. The humpback parrot fish will be processed and cut into small pieces, the fermented rice vinegar water used to dip the fish will be seasoned with chopped tomatoes and pineapple to enhance the flavor. When eating, we will use rice paper rolls, raw vegetables and salty fish sauce. <\/span><\/p>\n
