Morning light slices the Malacca Strait as the boat pushes off from An Thoi. Salt and diesel mix in the air while the guide points out tiny islets that rise like green coins from the sea; currents nudge the hull, daring you to step into glassy shallows. You’ll pull up to three small islands—Hon Kim Quy, Hon Gầm Ghì and Hòn Mây Rút—each offering a different face of Phu Quoc: pocket beaches, coral gardens and shallow lagoons that invite snorkeling and easy swims.

Morning light slices the Malacca Strait as the boat pushes off from An Thoi. Salt and diesel mix in the air while the guide points out tiny islets that rise like green coins from the sea; currents nudge the hull, daring you to step into glassy shallows. You’ll pull up to three small islands—Hon Kim Quy, Hon Gầm Ghì and Hòn Mây Rút—each offering a different face of Phu Quoc: pocket beaches, coral gardens and shallow lagoons that invite snorkeling and easy swims.
These islands sit at the southern edge of Phu Quoc’s An Thoi archipelago, a landscape shaped by limestone outcrops and coral growths over millennia and long used by local fishing communities and pearl farms. The modern contrast arrives on Hon Thom, where the Sun World cable car slices the sky and delivers panoramic views back toward the archipelago.
Expect guided snorkel sessions over fringing reefs, breaks on white sand, a simple island lunch and time to explore tidal pools. The day blends low-effort activity with plenty of downtime—suitable for families and travelers who want marine life without long boat legs.
Practical notes: the trip runs about nine hours with hotel pickup from Duong Dong, uses an air-conditioned transfer, and provides snorkeling gear, bottled water and lunch. Watch for sun and currents; reef-safe sunscreen and reef-aware behavior protect the corals you’ll come to admire. End the day with a cable-car ride over Hon Thom, where the sea flattens into a sheet of light before the return to the pier.
