The day begins before sunrise in Duong Dong, as the boat slips from An Thoi harbor and the sea opens like a corridor of light. Salt air pushes at your face, and the islands ahead—Gam Ghi’s reef-laced shoals, the small white crescent of Hon May Nhut, and the cable-car silhouette of Hon Thom—pull the itinerary into focus.

The day begins before sunrise in Duong Dong, as the boat slips from An Thoi harbor and the sea opens like a corridor of light. Salt air pushes at your face, and the islands ahead—Gam Ghi’s reef-laced shoals, the small white crescent of Hon May Nhut, and the cable-car silhouette of Hon Thom—pull the itinerary into focus.
These isles sit at the southern edge of Phu Quoc, carved from limestone and coral outcrops and brushed by Gulf currents that concentrate coral growth and fish life. Gam Ghi is known for shallow reefs within easy swimming distance of shore; Hon May Nhut offers sheltered sand and a simple lunch stop; Hon Thom’s cable car (one of the world’s longest over-water spans) delivers panoramic views of the archipelago. Local fishing villages around An Thoi reflect Phu Quoc’s maritime culture—long-tail boats, fish sauce production, and daily markets shaped by tides.
Practical guidance: the full experience is a nine-hour day with guided transfers from Duong Dong, boat time between islands, snorkeling, a beach lunch, and cable car access at Hon Thom. Expect sun, salt, and some boat movement; reef-safe sunscreen, a snorkel mask, and a light wind layer are smart additions. Bring a small dry bag, cash for local purchases, and a towel; if you’re prone to seasickness pack medication. The tour is rated easy physically but includes water entries and walking on uneven sand and jetty surfaces, so stable footwear and basic mobility are helpful. For best water clarity visit in the dry season (Nov–Apr); operators may alter the route in rough conditions. By day’s end you’ll have traded city noise for coral flats, blue horizons, and the steady hum of the cable car—Phu Quoc’s coastline daring you to explore its quieter edges.

Suitable for travelers in normal physical condition; requires basic mobility for boarding, shallow snorkeling, and short beach walks.
Yes—lunch is included on the tour, typically served on Hon May Nhut with simple local dishes; notify in advance for vegetarian options.
Operators commonly provide basic snorkel equipment, but many travelers prefer to bring a personal mask for fit and hygiene.

The cable car accepts adults 1.4m and taller; children 1.0–1.4m have a different rate and under 1.0m may ride free—confirm at booking.
The An Thoi archipelago has long been a local fishing zone; Phu Quoc’s communities grew around small ports and fish-sauce production central to the island’s economy.
Stick to marked snorkeling areas, avoid touching coral, and use only reef-safe sunscreen; local operators encourage minimal-impact visits to protect reefs and fish populations.
