Morning light lifts off the South China Sea as a small fleet pulls away from An Thoi port, engines cutting the calm and sending spray across sun-warmed decks. Visitors trade hotel lobbies for canoes and a modern boat bound for May Rut, Mong Tay and Hon Dua — three compact islands where the water looks as clear as glass and the coral beds shape the day.

Morning light lifts off the South China Sea as a small fleet pulls away from An Thoi port, engines cutting the calm and sending spray across sun-warmed decks. Visitors trade hotel lobbies for canoes and a modern boat bound for May Rut, Mong Tay and Hon Dua — three compact islands where the water looks as clear as glass and the coral beds shape the day.
This loop through Phu Quoc’s southern archipelago mixes geology and local history: the islands are limestone and coral outcrops formed by sea-level shifts, and An Thoi has long been a fishing and trading harbor for Khmer and Viet communities. Culture is visible in the small floating cages, the scent of grilled seafood ashore, and the easy rhythm of boats returning at dusk.
Expect snorkeling over shallow reefs, short swims from the boat, and a relaxed beach picnic before a longer stop at Hon Thom’s waterpark and buffet. Late afternoon brings the highlight — a ride on the Hon Thom cable car, a record-setting sea-crossing that delivers a panoramic sunset over scattered islets.
Practical guidance: bring reef-safe sunscreen, a snug snorkel mask, and water shoes for rocky shores. Weather is tropical — aim for dry-season mornings for the clearest water and calmer seas. Tours typically run eight hours with included transfers, lunch and equipment; fitness expectations are low but basic swimming ability is required for snorkeling. The day balances easy exploration with a sense of movement: currents nudging you through reef gardens, wind lifting the cable car across the sea as the sky turns gold.
moderate.

Suitable for most people who can swim short distances and stand for periods; minimal endurance required.
Yes — masks, snorkels and basic fins are provided; child-sized fins may not be available so bring your own if needed.
The cable car crosses several kilometers of sea and includes an island station at Hon Thom where you can disembark to use the waterpark and buffet before returning.
Round-trip transfers are typically included for central Phu Quoc hotels; some outlying areas carry a small surcharge noted at booking.
This tour lists tickets as non‑refundable (all sales final), so confirm plans before booking and check weather conditions the day prior.
An Thoi developed as a fishing and trading hub; local communities historically harvested pearls and traded across the Gulf.
