Classic seaside breakfast in Duong Dong with fresh fruit, Vietnamese coffee and an international menu to fuel a full day of exploring; excellent coffee and reliable service. The restaurant typically opens from 7:00–10:30 for breakfast; check current hours with the hotel if you're not a guest.

Drive through the central agricultural area to see how the island’s famous pepper is grown and visit a fish-sauce house to learn traditional production — quick, photogenic, and educational. Most farms welcome visitors 8:00–17:00; small on-site purchase opportunities often available.
Head to Ham Ninh village (east coast) for fresh seafood right by the water — excellent for crab, grilled fish and local styles. Restaurants typically open 10:00–21:00; arrive early for best selection.

Take the cable car — one of the world’s longest over-sea lines — to Hon Thom for short walks, a small beach area and elevated views; cable car operations commonly run 8:00–19:00. If you prefer a quieter afternoon, skip and return to the hotel.
A sobering, informative visit to the prison-turned-museum with exhibits on Vietnam’s history; open typically 7:30–11:30 and 13:30–17:00, so schedule the visit in the afternoon slot. Good for history-minded travellers.
Return toward Duong Dong and catch sunset along Long Beach or at a coastal viewpoint near Ham Ninh — great light for photos and a calm end to island activities. Public access available at sunset hours.
Enjoy a leisurely seafood dinner or beach-side grill; Rory’s and similar beachfront eateries offer good seafood and cocktails with relaxed ambience. Many restaurants open through the evening; reservations recommended on busy nights.
If you missed the night market the first night or want a final souvenir, stroll the Duong Dong market area or enjoy a nightcap near the pier before departure next day.
