Designated as the world biosphere reserve by UNESCO in 2009, the tourist spot is renowned for its abundant marine ecosystem, white sandy beaches, and tranquil villages. The islands remain rich in cultural and historical values, hanging from Cham ancient wells to historic buildings. The water environment around the Cham Islands is an important fishery ground. Several marine products of high economic value, such as lobsters, groupers, snappers, craps, shrimps, and clams, occur in the area. The islands' coral reefs are an important area for shelter, nursery, and food providing for marine resources. The Cham islands topography is mostly mountainous, without rivers, except for the biggest island of Hon Lao, where you can see some rocks under the freshwater and streams with natural forests. According to the Forestry Protection Department of Quang Nam forests covered, all islands are natural and extremely protected forests. Forests in Cu lao Cham play a very important role in water resources protection for the whole islands. This period is appropriate for some activities like swimming, scuba diving, sunbathing. Then, the remaining period of the year - September to February, there are plenty of rains and huge waves so there will be no boats to transport tourists to the islands.

The Hon Thom cable car system is owned and operated by Doppelmayr, a Swiss cable car producer that leads in the industry, the system employing advanced three-wire technology.
