There are two ways for tourists to reach Tho Chu island, the first way is that you will go from the mainland of Rach Gia and you will be floating at sea for 16 hours, here sure is torture for those who suffer from seasickness.

Because the distance to the island is entirely by boat, traveling on a boat for a long time is extremely difficult, for those who are not used to sailing on the sea.
