Why book a ticket
It's a proper tech spectacle, not a folk show
Symphony of the Sea is modern, loud and fast — synchronised lasers, projection on water screens, low-level fireworks and, the part everyone talks about, professional jetski and flyboard athletes carving across the bay mid-performance. It's closer to a stadium light show staged on the sea than to a traditional cultural dance, and it plays to that: high energy, big finish, over quickly.
One show or both, your choice
Worth being straight about this: the show plays over an open bay, but none of the pages we read says you can watch it without a ticket. The GetYourGuide ticket lets you choose Symphony of the Sea, Kiss of the Sea, or both in one evening, and your chosen option decides which show or shows are included, so check it before you pay. Food and drinks aren't included, which leaves you free to eat in Sunset Town wherever you like.
It caps a Sunset Town evening
The show sits at the end of the Phú Quốc cable car and the Sunset Town promenade, a purpose-built waterfront of restaurants, bars and the Kiss Bridge. Most people make an evening of it — dinner and a wander with the show as the finale — rather than travelling down just for the show. Timed that way, it's a strong close to a night at the southern end of the island.

What is the Symphony of the Sea show?
It's a nightly outdoor spectacle staged over the bay at Sunset Town, on the southern tip of Phú Quốc Island. In one short, fast-moving show it combines music, lasers, projections on water screens, low-level fireworks and live stunts by professional jetski and flyboard riders. It's a modern, high-energy tech show rather than a traditional cultural performance.
Isn't the show free to watch? What does the ticket get me?
None of the pages we read says you can watch Symphony of the Sea without a ticket. The GetYourGuide ticket lets you choose Symphony of the Sea, Kiss of the Sea, or both in one evening, and your chosen option decides which show or shows are included. Food and drinks are not included.
How long is it, and what time does it start?
The show is short and runs to a fixed nightly slot, in the early evening, and Sun Group's visitor site puts it at about 20 minutes. Your confirmation shows the exact start time, so it's best treated as the punchy finale to an evening rather than a full night's entertainment on its own.
How do I actually get down to Sunset Town?
It's at Sunset Town in An Thới, at the far southern end of Phú Quốc — the same waterfront as the Hòn Thơm cable car and Kiss Bridge. It's a real drive by car or taxi from the Dương Đông area and the northern resorts, and longer from the very top of the island, so it's worth planning the trip down and your ride back in advance.
Is it good for children?
Generally yes — it's colourful, fast and visual, with stunts and fireworks that tend to go down well with kids. The main caveats are that it's genuinely loud, it's on late in the evening, and it's short, so factor in the noise and the timing for very young children.
Can I combine it with other things at Sunset Town?
Easily. Many visitors ride the Hòn Thơm cable car during the day, have dinner along the Sunset Town promenade, and stay for the show. You can also add the nearby Kiss of the Sea show, a different production, by choosing the Kiss of the Sea or both option when you book. The price for your option is shown before you pay.
Can I book Kiss of the Sea here as well?
Yes. The booking link on this site lets you choose Symphony of the Sea, Kiss of the Sea, or both in one evening. Check the option name before you pay, because it decides which show or shows you get.
Is there a live performance every night?
A reviewer reports no live performers on Tuesdays, so check the programme for your date before you book. Schedules follow the venue's operating schedule, and weather can change the fireworks and water elements.
