What it is and who it suits
A shared speedboat trip to Hon Mong Tay and Hon Gam Ghi costs about USD 25 to 49 per person, a guide range checked on 5 November 2026. A private speedboat is priced per trip instead, from about USD 110 to 196 depending on size. Hon Mong Tay is a tiny island with very calm water, suitable for swimming and resting.
The trip suits swimmers, families and anyone who wants soft white sand and shallow turquoise lagoons without a long day. Many visitors consider Mong Tay one of the most beautiful beaches in the An Thoi Archipelago.
The day
- Pickup: reported at 08:15 to 08:30 in the Duong Dong area by one operator, and at 9:00 AM from the hotel lobby by another, followed by a transfer to An Thoi port.
- Snorkelling: the Gam Ghi session is scheduled from 10:00 to 11:00.
- Beach time: at Mong Tay you can sunbathe, swim and relax.
- Lunch: served on the lunch island rather than on the boat, as a sit-down seafood meal with time to rest afterwards.
The exact route depends on sea and weather conditions, so the island order can change. Total duration and boat travel time are not fixed, so ask when you book. Our An Thoi to Hon Mong Tay travel time guide gives more detail.
