May Rut Trong is one of the large islands located south of An Thoi archipelago, Hon Thom commune, Phu Quoc Island. Phu Quoc island has more than 22 different large and small islands, but May Rut Trong is the most beautiful destination among the islands that we can reach and visit. It is a place that is extremely popular with domestic and foreign tourists.
There are two islands with the same name: May Rut – May Rut Ngoai and May Rut Trong. “Ngoai” means outside, and “Trong” means inside. May Rut Ngoai is further from An Thoi harbor than May Rut Trong.
May Rut Ngoai beach has a small, mainly rocky shore, while May Rut Trong island impresses tourists with its long, smooth sand, and crystal clear blue seawater.
The wild beauty bestowed by nature and activities make May Rut Trong island become a “must visit once in a lifetime” destination. Let’s take a look at the Top 10 things to do on May Rut Trong island below:

John’s Tours will prepare all necessary tools and equipment such as a tent, blanket, mattress, and pillow. You only need to bring your personal belongings such as clothes, towels, brushes, toothpaste, mosquito repellent cream, and sunscreen.
8. Snorkeling
Around May Rut Trong island, there are many rock and coral reefs. You can swim and watch the ocean life below the water’s surface: the colorful corals, and vivid school of fish.
You should bring your equipment such as a mask, fin, and snorkel because many tour operators only let you use their snorkeling equipment at snorkeling spots – Gam Ghi island, Buom island.
Remember to stay away from the way of water vehicles. They can accidentally hurt you. Do not touch the coral or stand on it. The coral can scrape your skin to bleed. This action also contributes to the destruction of marine habitats and species.
