If you have the opportunity to pass through Ca Pass (National Highway 1, belonging to Phu Yen and Khanh Hoa provinces), you can easily see Hon Nua, a small, pristine island about 1 nautical mile from shore.
Hon Nua is about 35km south of Tuy Hoa city center. The sea water here is as clear as jade, on sunny days you can see all the way to the bottom of the water.
The island also has giant cliffs with a surface crisscrossed with vertical and horizontal cuts, creating a mysterious feeling.
