Phu Quy Island is becoming increasingly attractive to tourists. Besides exploring its natural beauty and historical sites, visitors are also treated to a variety of fresh seafood infused with the salty essence of the sea. Among these, one simple yet unforgettable dish stands out: grilled fish under the night sky.

During this season, the sea is calm and fishing is smooth for local fishermen. From around 7 PM until midnight, you can stroll along the shoreline and spot fishing boats docking, their holds brimming with fresh, silver-scaled fish glistening under the lights.

In the gentle sea breeze and under the moonlight, the aroma of fish grilling over glowing charcoal is irresistible. The golden, crispy skin and the flaky white flesh underneath tempt any passerby. The fresh sweetness of the fish, the briny taste of the sea, and a splash of fine fish sauce mixed with crushed green chilies create a rich, spicy flavor. Add some basil and a small glass of rice wine, and you have a hearty midnight feast with flavors that linger long after the last bite.

Enjoying grilled fish late at night is a special experience—this humble dish has left such a strong impression that it continues to draw countless visitors back to Phu Quy!
