History and name<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>Geographical location:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Hon Mong Tay is a small island located to the south of island Ph\u00fa Qu\u1ed1c, in Kien Giang province. The island is located between Ba Lua archipelago and Hai Tac archipelago, near Hon Thom commune (district Ph\u00fa Qu\u1ed1c). Around Hon Mong Tay there are other small islands such as Hon Xuong and <a href=\"https:\/\/phuquocexpress.com\/en\/phu-quoc-sandbank\"><strong>Hon Gam Ghi<\/strong><\/a>. Thanks to its isolation from the busy sea route, the island has been almost untouched by humans, still retaining its original wild and pure beauty. Currently, the island has very few residents, mainly welcoming tourists during the day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Origin of the name:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The name <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&quot;Nail Island&quot;<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> originated from the nail tree (also known as the mountain pine tree) that used to grow abundantly on the island. The first people who lived here used the name of this typical tree to name the island. Although today there are not many nail trees left, the name Hon Mong Tay is still passed down. The island is also affectionately called \u201cRobinson Island\u201d by the locals, associated with the legend of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&quot;island lord&quot; Mr. An<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Mr. An is known as the \u201cblind knight\u201d, the pioneer who lived on the deserted island for 13 years, bringing vitality to this place. This interesting Robinson story has contributed to the mysterious attraction of Hon Mong Tay, making anyone who visits want to listen and explore.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9727\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9727\" style=\"width: 1020px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-9727 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/phuquocexpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/hon-mong-tay-phu-quoc-2-1024x767.jpg\" alt=\"Hon Mong Tay Ph\u00fa Qu\u1ed1c - attractive tourist destination\" width=\"1020\" height=\"764\" srcset=\"https:\/\/phuquocexpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/hon-mong-tay-phu-quoc-2-1024x767.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/phuquocexpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/hon-mong-tay-phu-quoc-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/phuquocexpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/hon-mong-tay-phu-quoc-2-768x575.jpg 768w, https:\/\/phuquocexpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/hon-mong-tay-phu-quoc-2-16x12.jpg 16w, https:\/\/phuquocexpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/hon-mong-tay-phu-quoc-2.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9727\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hon Mong Tay Ph\u00fa Qu\u1ed1c - attractive tourist destination<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Thoi_diem_ly_tuong_du_lich_Hon_Mong_Tay\"><\/span><b>Ideal time to travel to Hon Mong Tay<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the Vietnam General Department of Hydrometeorology and some tourism surveys in Ph\u00fa Qu\u1ed1c, Ph\u00fa Qu\u1ed1c has <a href=\"https:\/\/phuquocexpress.com\/en\/when-to-go-to-phu-quoc\"><strong>climate<\/strong><\/a> divided into two distinct seasons: dry season (November - April) and rainy season (May - October).

If you plan to swim or snorkel, bring your swimsuit, towel, and <a href=\"https:\/\/phuquocexpress.com\/en\/what-is-a-life-buoy\"><strong>life jacket<\/strong><\/a> (if the tour does not provide) to ensure safety.
