An Thoi Lighthouse

A working lighthouse on a headland above An Thới, and a rewarding little climb for one of the best views in the south. The path up is steep and rough in patches, but the top gives you a sweep over the An Thới archipelago, the harbour and the cable car strung out to Hòn Thơm. It's free and rarely busy — more a local viewpoint than a marked attraction. Go for sunrise or late afternoon to dodge the midday heat, wear proper shoes, and bring water. Easy to combine with the harbour and the cable-car terminal down below.
