Hon Thom Island (Aquatopia Water Park)
Hòn Thơm / Công viên nước Aquatopia
A tropical island water park and cable car destination in Phu Quoc, known for big slides, beach views, and easy day-trip fun.
What to know before you go
- Hon Thom Island is reached from An Thoi in southern Phu Quoc, most famously via the Hon Thom cable car, one of the longest over-sea cable car rides in the world. The ride itself is a major part of the experience and is often included in combo tickets with Aquatopia Water Park.
- Aquatopia Water Park is the main attraction on the island, featuring themed slides, wave pools, lazy-river style relaxation areas, and family-friendly zones. For solo travelers, it is a straightforward way to spend half a day or more without needing a group itinerary.
