Discover the beauty of coral reefs - Hon Yen Island in Phu Yen

In this article, Mytour introduces you to a quite unique attraction in Phu Yen, an island with a stunning 'on-land' coral reef, Hon Yen Island. This is also an extremely famous island with tourists when traveling to Phu Yen.



The reason this island is called Hon Yen is because there used to be many species of Swallow birds nesting here. However, nowadays, most Swallow birds migrate and concentrate in Hon Noi and Hon Sam. When you come to Hon Yen Island, you can stroll on the large sandbanks, the towering green casuarina rows, and enjoy the cool and fresh air.

Hon Yen Island is an island that still retains its pristine beauty, not yet heavily exploited. Thanks to that, the ecosystem and vegetation here are still very diverse, the nature is truly amazing that you will be amazed when admiring it.

Especially, what makes tourists excited when coming here is that at low tide, a path connecting Hon Yen Island and Hon Sun Island will appear. You can walk and admire the magnificent colorful coral reefs revealed under the sunset.

Note that the island is still very pristine so you need to prepare food, drinks, and necessary items when going to the island. It is advisable to visit the island during the day or if you want to experience outdoor activities such as camping, watching the sunrise, you should go in a large group or go with local people to ensure safety.

The coral reef on the island is very beautiful and special, however, this coral ecosystem is very sensitive, easily damaged by human impacts. Therefore, you should only look, avoid stepping on, and pay attention to preserving the coral.
