The cable car lifts you above a jeweled stretch of sea — turquoise, shallow, and edged with small white beaches — and the islands of the An Thoi archipelago unfold like stepping-stones to the horizon.
You begin on Hon Thom, where the sky and ocean meet in wide planes and a short golden beach offers a splash-and-stretch before boarding your private speedboat. From the stern you’ll cross to Gam Ghi’s powdery sand, drift among bommie fields off May Rut and Bom islands, and drop anchor at Mong Tay (Fingernail) for lunch and a drone-shot memory. The water here is warm, visibility good in calm conditions, and the reefs host hard corals and reef fish adapted to the Gulf of Thailand’s calmer shelf.
The archipelago is a product of carbonate reef growth and tropical weathering; fishing and pearl-culture traditions still shape local cuisine and pier-side life in nearby An Thoi. Hon Thom’s cable car — notable for its long over-water span — was built to connect the fast-growing resort infrastructure to the south coast without adding roads.
Practical guidance: plan for 4–6 hours, bring reef-safe sunscreen, a quick-dry shirt and a light wind layer for the boat. Mask, snorkel and fins are typically provided, but experienced snorkelers often bring their own fit for clearer views. Mind coral — no standing or touching — and expect occasional chop when crossing between islands. Morning departures usually mean calmer seas and better visibility; late afternoons deliver softer light for photos and a chance at an orange-slicked horizon.
The private tour runs approximately 4–6 hours, depending on transfers and sea conditions.
Snorkeling equipment and mineral water are usually provided; bringing your own mask improves fit and comfort.
