    Hon Tro is an island formed in 1923 in the south of Phu Quy Island (Binh Thuan Province). This volcanic island only existed for a short time before completely disappearing into the deep sea.

    According to records, Hon Tro was formed from piles of black, light, spongy debris - a typical characteristic of volcanic ash. The island's surface appears to have more dense blocks, concentrated mainly at the highest peak, which is 0.75m high and 0.5m wide. Scientists hypothesize that Hon Tro may have been eroded and disintegrated by the force of wind and waves because the island was made of materials that were not tightly bonded.
