The speedboat slices away from An Thoi harbor under a bright tropic sun; salt air and the creak of rigging set the tempo while a fresh coconut is handed over as a welcome. Wave-slick islands rise like green shoulders from the Gulf, and the first reef appears as a smear of turquoise where fish scatter at the boat’s shadow.
