Description
Immerse yourself in the tranquility of Lan Ha Bay during the most magical time of the day. This afternoon sunset tour offers the perfect escape from the crowds, allowing you to kayak, swim, and relax as the sun dips below the limestone karsts.
Your journey begins between 14:15 and 14:30 with a convenient pick-up from your hotel in the center of Cat Ba Town. After a short transfer to Ben Beo Harbor, you will board the boat and start your cruise.
Experience the Ancient Floating Culture As we leave the pier, the boat glides through the legendary Cai Beo Floating Village—one of the oldest fishing villages in Vietnam. You will have the chance to witness the unique daily life of local fishermen living on floating houses, surrounded by hundreds of islands.
Into the Heart of the Bay Leaving the village behind, the cruise navigates deep into the core of Lan Ha Bay. Admire the spectacular landscapes and iconic limestone formations, including the famous Turtle Islet (Hon Rua), a symbol of the bay’s natural beauty.
Kayaking & Swimming Adventure We drop anchor in a calm, emerald lagoon surrounded by towering cliffs. This is the perfect time to get active:
Kayaking: Paddle your own kayak through hidden archways and quiet waters, getting up close to the nature that makes this heritage site so special.
Swimming: Jump off the boat into the cool, refreshing water or simply float and enjoy the serenity of the bay without the morning tourist crowds.
Sunset Party on the Sundeck After your water activities, climb back on board to dry off and relax. As the 'Golden Hour' approaches, we host a Sunset Party on the sundeck. Enjoy complimentary tea, fresh fruits, and pastries while soothing music plays in the background. Watch the sky transform into shades of orange and purple—the most romantic moment of the day.
At 17:45, the boat returns to the harbor as twilight falls, and our car will drop you back at your hotel, concluding an unforgettable afternoon.
