You step onto the harbor as the morning sun lifts off the Gulf of Thailand — sea air this clear tastes faintly of salt and coral. A short drive from Duong Dong puts you on board a day boat that threads south toward Hon Gam Ghi, Hon May Rut and the cable-car island of Hon Thom. The rhythm is boat engines, gull calls, and the slap of waves against hulls; the cable car later stitches sea and sky across an 8‑km span to the water park on Hon Thom.
Verified experiences and guided adventures in the surrounding area.

You step onto the harbor as the morning sun lifts off the Gulf of Thailand — sea air this clear tastes faintly of salt and coral. A short drive from Duong Dong puts you on board a day boat that threads south toward Hon Gam Ghi, Hon May Rut and the cable-car island of Hon Thom. The rhythm is boat engines, gull calls, and the slap of waves against hulls; the cable car later stitches sea and sky across an 8‑km span to the water park on Hon Thom.
These islands sit at Phu Quoc’s southern edge, where limestone shoals and coral gardens formed over millennia meet modern leisure — a mix of traditional fishing history and recent tourism infrastructure. Hon Gam Ghi and Hon May Rut are known for shallow reefs and white sand; expect snorkelable bays and clear visibility on calm days. Hon Thom combines natural viewpoints with engineered attractions: the world‑class cable car and family‑oriented waterpark.
Practically, this is a full‑day loop — roughly nine hours from hotel pickup, with island stops ranging from two to three hours and a long cable‑car crossing to cap the day. Bring reef‑safe sunscreen, a waterproof bag, and closed water shoes for rocky shallows. If you’re prone to seasickness, plan medication ahead; operators recommend modest fitness and caution for those with spine or heart issues. Aim for a morning departure to beat midday heat and afternoon squalls; the reward is vivid reef life, manageable swims, and a sweeping aerial descent on the cable car that makes the islands’ geology and fishing culture read clearly beneath you.
easy.
9 hours.
Suitable for most travelers with basic stamina — expect standing on boats and short beach walks; not strenuous.
The Hon Thom cable car crosses roughly 8 km of sea — expect around 15–20 minutes one way including boarding and disembarkation.
Many operators provide basic snorkel equipment, but sizes and condition vary; bring your own mask if fit and comfort matter.
Yes — family‑friendly stops and a water park make it suitable for kids, but non‑swimmers should use lifejackets and stay with guides during snorkeling.
This tour is not recommended for pregnant travelers or those with serious spinal or cardiovascular conditions; check with your doctor and the operator before booking.
These islands are part of Phu Quoc’s fishing and pepper‑farming history; recent investment in cable‑car infrastructure has shifted the southern archipelago toward day‑trip tourism.
Coral reefs here are sensitive to anchors and sunscreen chemicals; choose operators who follow no‑anchor or mooring‑buoy practices and use reef‑safe products.
