Dinner with Symphony Show And Firework Of Kiss Of The Sea
Phu Quoc’s big evening show is built around the sea. You’ll dine at Sun Bavaria GastroPub, watch jetskis race through colored water during Symphony of the Sea, then see music, dancing, and fireworks from the restaurant. I like the easy combination of dinner and entertainment, especially for couples who want one planned night out. I also like that a private table and one craft beer are included.
The catch is the ticket and seating arrangement. Symphony of the Sea may cost an extra 250,000 VND per person, and Kiss of the Sea is viewed from the restaurant rather than from inside the main show venue. Recent bookings also point to problems with unexpected transfer charges, table changes, and unclear instructions, so you should confirm every extra cost before departure.
Key points to know before booking

- Symphony of the Sea runs only from November through April, so check the season before you reserve.
- Kiss of the Sea is watched from the restaurant, not from the show venue itself.
- A private table and one craft beer are included, while some table locations may depend on the option you book.
- Hotel pickup and air-conditioned transport are optional, and a tour guide in person costs extra.
- The evening combines dinner, singers, dancers, ocean performances, and fireworks, making it best for a special night rather than a quiet meal.
- Confirm all surcharges in writing, especially Symphony tickets, holiday fees, guide costs, and return transport.
An evening built around Phu Quoc’s show calendar

This experience takes place in the Sunset Town area of Phu Quoc, in Kien Giang province. It is less a traditional food tour and more a complete night out: restaurant seating, a stage performance, ocean action, and fireworks arranged into one schedule.
The advertised timing runs from 7:00 p.m. to about 9:30 p.m., though the activity may be sold in formats lasting anywhere from 30 minutes to four hours. That wide duration range matters. Your actual time depends on the transport option, the show tickets selected, and how the evening is packaged.
I would treat the $26 starting price as an entry point, not a guaranteed final bill. The package includes dinner, one craft beer, bottled water in the car, and optional hotel transport, but the Symphony show has a stated surcharge of 250,000 VND per person. There may also be holiday surcharges and extra charges for an in-person guide.
Before you pay, ask for a written breakdown of:
- The total price per adult and child
- Whether Symphony of the Sea is included
- The exact table location
- Hotel pickup and return costs
- Holiday surcharges
- Any fee for a guide who accompanies you in person
That simple check can prevent an expensive surprise at the end of the evening.

Arriving at Sun Bavaria GastroPub at 7:00 p.m.

If you select hotel pickup, an air-conditioned car collects you and takes you to Sun Bavaria GastroPub. Hotel pickup and drop-off are optional, so the meeting point depends on the option you book. Bottled water is listed for the car, though I would still carry your own bottle in case the transfer arrangement changes.
The restaurant is presented as a warm, casual setting with lanterns, wooden decoration, and a social evening atmosphere. You receive a welcome drink on arrival, then settle at your table before dinner and the shows begin.
The setting suits a date night. You can share a meal, watch the action over the water, and avoid moving between several venues. That convenience is the main selling point. You are buying an organized evening, not simply a table at a pub.
The seating deserves careful attention. Some options advertise a private table or a better view, but table placement has not always matched what was paid for. If the view matters to you, ask for the table category and location in writing. A private table does not automatically mean the best position for seeing the water or stage.
Dinner and one craft beer from 7:00 to 7:45 p.m.

Dinner is described as a fusion meal combining Phu Quoc flavors with international cooking. The meal is paired with one craft beer, which gives the evening a local brewery feel rather than the formality of a fine-dining restaurant.
I like this part because it gives you time to settle in before the entertainment gets loud. A meal at the table also makes the schedule easier for couples and families. You do not need to find a restaurant after the fireworks, and you can keep your evening focused in one place.
The supplied information does not specify the exact menu, number of courses, or children’s portions. That is important if you are booking for young diners. The package price may offer fair value for adults who will eat and drink at the restaurant, but it can feel less attractive for children who eat little or do not want craft beer.
Ask about the menu before booking if you have dietary needs or are traveling with children. Also confirm whether dinner is plated or buffet-style. One recent booking was surprised to find a buffet and had not received clear instructions about how the meal worked.
Symphony of the Sea from 7:45 to 8:15 p.m.

The strongest part of the evening is likely Symphony of the Sea. Jetskis cut across the water while music, lights, and fireworks turn the ocean into the performance area. It is a fast, theatrical show, and the moving water gives it a scale that a normal stage cannot match.
The timing is short, about 30 minutes, but the format is designed for spectacle rather than a long story. You watch from your restaurant position, so your experience depends heavily on sightlines. A table with a clear view of the water will matter more here than a quiet corner close to the dining area.
Symphony runs only from November through April. If you are visiting Phu Quoc outside those months, do not assume this portion will operate. The dinner and other entertainment may still be available, but the main ocean performance is seasonal.
There is also a ticket issue to settle before you go. A 250,000 VND per-person surcharge is listed for Symphony of the Sea. The package wording can make it easy to assume that all shows are included, but Symphony and Kiss of the Sea are separate productions. Confirm which show tickets you are receiving and which ones require payment.

Music and dancing from 8:15 to 9:00 p.m.

After the ocean performance, singers and dancers continue the night. This section shifts the mood from visual spectacle to live celebration, with music, movement, and audience participation.
You can clap along, sway with a partner, or simply stay at the table and watch. It is a useful middle section because it keeps the evening moving while giving you a break from the quick action of the jetskis and lights.
Do not expect a quiet dinner once the entertainment starts. The restaurant becomes a show setting, and conversation may be harder during the music. That is a good fit for couples celebrating something, groups of friends, and families who enjoy a lively night. It is less suitable if you want a slow meal with long conversation.
The schedule also means that dinner and entertainment overlap in a practical way. You may still be eating while the first performance starts. If you prefer to finish your food before watching a show, tell the restaurant staff when you arrive, though the supplied details do not promise that the timing can be adjusted.
Fireworks over the sea from 9:00 to 9:30 p.m.

The final half hour is devoted to fireworks. The display rises above the Phu Quoc coastline, with reflections on the water below. This is the most romantic part of the evening, particularly for couples who want a memorable ending without arranging a separate sunset cruise or beach restaurant.
The fireworks are also the point at which your table position matters most. A blocked view can take the shine off an otherwise expensive evening. If you are booking a private table with a promised view, keep the confirmation and check the table when you arrive.
Kiss of the Sea is watched from the restaurant with this package. That distinction is worth repeating. You are not necessarily entering the Kiss of the Sea venue or receiving a full ticket to both productions. The restaurant view can still give you the atmosphere of the event, but it is not the same product as sitting inside the show area.
If seeing Kiss of the Sea up close is a priority, ask exactly what your booking includes. The clearest question is: Do I receive a ticket, or do I watch the show from the restaurant? The provided details answer that for this experience: you watch it from the restaurant.
Transport, guides, and the details that need checking
Hotel pickup and drop-off are optional. An air-conditioned car is available with the transport option, and online guide support is listed. A guide who accompanies you in person requires an additional charge.
Transport has been on time for some bookings, which is valuable on a fixed show schedule. If the car is late, you can miss dinner, a performance, or the best part of the fireworks. Confirm your pickup time, driver contact, and return price before leaving your hotel.
Be especially careful with return transport charges. One booking involved a second driver asking for an additional payment after the passenger had already paid for the outbound transfer. You should not rely on a verbal price given at the hotel or in a message. Save the agreed amount and ask whether it covers both directions.
The online guide support may help with coordination, but it is not the same as having a guide beside you. If you need someone to explain the venue, show sequence, seating, and meal arrangements, budget for the in-person guide surcharge.
Language support is listed for English, French, German, Frisian, Italian, Spanish, Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Vietnamese, and Traditional Chinese. The booking information does not identify a specific guide by name, so do not expect a named personal guide unless one is assigned separately.
What the $26 price really buys you

At $26 per person, the package can be reasonable for an adult who wants dinner, a craft beer, restaurant seating, and an organized view of the evening entertainment. It saves you from arranging a restaurant reservation and transport separately.
The value drops if you add several extras. Symphony tickets, holiday surcharges, private guiding, and transport can push the final cost well above the advertised starting price. Children may also receive poor value if they are charged close to the adult rate but eat very little.
I would compare the total against three separate costs: a meal at Sun Bavaria GastroPub, transport to the venue, and access to the show you actually want to see. If the combined price is close, the package wins on convenience. If the extras bring it much higher, booking dinner and transport independently may give you more control.
The private table can be worthwhile for a couple, but only if the table location is clear. A private table at the back may offer privacy but not a good view. A better table category should be confirmed before payment rather than assumed from the sales wording.
Who will enjoy this night most

I would recommend this experience to:
- Couples looking for a planned romantic evening
- First-time visitors who want dinner and a major show in one booking
- Families who enjoy music, dancing, and fireworks
- Friends who prefer a social restaurant setting
- People staying near Phu Quoc’s main show area who want arranged transport
I would be more cautious if you want a quiet meal, a detailed guided tour, or guaranteed front-row show access. It is also not the best fit for children unless the operator can explain the child price and meal arrangement clearly.
You should also check the season. From November to April, Symphony of the Sea is part of the possible evening. Outside that period, the central ocean performance may not run, which changes the value of the booking.
Cancellation is flexible if your plans change: you can cancel up to 24 hours in advance for a full refund, and reserve now while paying later. That helps when your Phu Quoc schedule is still moving, but it does not remove the need to confirm the final price and seating.
Should you book Dinner with Symphony Show and Firework of Kiss of the Sea?
Book it if you want a convenient, romantic night with dinner, music, jetskis, and fireworks, and you are willing to check the fine print. Symphony of the Sea is the main reason to come, and the restaurant setting makes the evening easy to arrange.
I would not book without confirming four things first: the Symphony surcharge, the exact table location, the return transfer cost, and the difference between watching Kiss of the Sea from the restaurant and entering the show venue.
For a couple visiting during the November to April season, the package can make a memorable night simple. For families with children or anyone watching the budget, calculate the final price carefully. The show may be spectacular, but unclear extras can turn a $26 evening into a much larger bill.
