Hon Phu Tu (Father-Son Rock)
Hòn Phụ Tử
Two limestone pillars standing in the sea off Hon Chong Cape, the most famous seascape landmark between Ha Tien and Kien Luong.
Hon Phu Tu (Father-Son Rock) stands offshore from Hon Chong Cape in Kien Luong district. It was originally a pair of limestone pillars, one tall and one short, looking like a father and son standing close together. The “father” pillar collapsed in 2006, but what remains is still the most iconic seascape in the area, and it makes a picturesque scene with nearby islets and fishing boats. You can view it from the shore or take a small boat for a closer look, and at low tide you can walk across the reef. It is about 35 km from Ha Tien, roughly 45 minutes by car, and is often combined with Hon Chong Cave Pagoda and Duong Beach in a half-day trip.
