Location: Phu Quy Island has an area of
16.5 sq km and population of 20,698 people (in 1999). It lies at the junction
line of the mainland and Truong Sa (Spratley) island, 120 km from Phan Thiet
City, 200 km from Vung Tau City, 330 km from Con Dao (Paulo Condor) and 540 km
from Truong Sa Island. It is close to the international maritime route.
Phu Quy is an important in-between logistic destination linking the mainland to
Truong Sa archipelago. It is a “floating base” providing services to ships
fishing offshore. With such an important position, people built a light house
guiding ships going out and coming in.
