From An Thoi Port, speedboats cut through the waves, taking tourists to the southern waters of Phu Quoc, where small islands lie amidst the characteristic turquoise waters of the Southwest Sea.
According to domestic tourists, Hon Gam Ghi, Hon May Rut Trong, and Hon Mong Tay are three destinations with completely different characteristics, contributing to the unique appeal of the southern part of the island. Hon Gam Ghi impresses with its pristine beauty and diverse coral reef ecosystem still visible beneath the crystal-clear water.
Natural rock formations interspersed with the sea create a scene that is both powerful and expansive. This is also a hub for many water activities such as snorkeling and parasailing. From above, the entire sea area appears with layers of color gradually transitioning from turquoise to deep blue, a unique beauty found only in Southern Phu Quoc.
Besides its captivating scenery, Gam Ghi Island also entices visitors with its delicious seafood dishes. Grilled sea urchin with scallion oil is a popular choice for many visitors. Fresh sea urchins, shucked, are grilled over charcoal with scallion oil, creating a distinctive aroma of the sea. The meat is rich, sweet, and flavorful, often enjoyed with a cold beer in the breezy sea air.
Because Gam Ghi Island is still relatively unspoiled, there aren't many large accommodations or restaurants. Most visitors choose to make a day trip or stay in the town center and then travel to the island by speedboat. For those who want to experience camping overnight at sea, preparing tents, food, and other necessary supplies is essential.
Additionally, visitors should bring sunscreen, sunglasses, motion sickness medication, and check the weather forecast before their trip, especially during peak season or weekends when the number of visitors increases significantly.
Leaving Hon Gam Ghi, the journey slows down at Hon May Rut Trong. The atmosphere here is relaxing with its long stretches of white sand, shallow and calm waters. The island is perfect for those seeking a break from nature, where you can relax under coconut trees, admire the sea, or simply enjoy the tranquility of the ocean.
Three islands, three different facets of the South Phu Quoc sea: one vibrant, one gentle, and one preserving the pristine beauty of the tropical ocean. More than just a journey to discover famous destinations, this trip reveals many different facets of the unspoiled, vibrant, and captivating beauty of Vietnam's islands and seas.
