By: Brian Vu - 23 December 2016

Mong Tay Island - Nail Island is the most mentioned on travel forums. Not only attractive to the backpackers, even local people also started to pay attention to the small area that is beautiful like a paradise. Besides, May Rut Island, Thom Island and Dam Ngang Island are also no less favoured.

1. Hon Thom (Thom Island)
 
Belonging to An Thoi archipelago, the Thom island has an area of 5.7 km² - though not too big but this place possesses a magical natural beauty which is very potential for tourism and aquaculture development. Thom Island now has electricity, water, schools, health centres ... to meet the demand of fishermen and the development of the island commune. The unique point on the island is that people always have two houses, one in the west and one in the east to move in the stormy season to avoid strong wind.
