Located in Co To, Mong Rong (Dragon Claw) Rock Area is a favourite destination for visitors to the island.The rocky area, also called Cau Mi, covers more than 40 hectares, stretching two kilometres northeast to southwest of the island. It has large rocks and mountains reaching out to the sea which look like dragon claws, and thus is called Mong Rong.

While Hong Van beach and Mong Rong Rock Area are places to enjoy beautiful sunrise, Van Chay beach at the end of Big Co To island is a very poetic and peaceful place to watch sunset.
