A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Ha Long Bay is one of the most iconic and breathtaking seascapes in the world, a vast expanse of emerald water studded with thousands of limestone karsts and islets rising sheer from the sea. Cruising among these dramatic formations is a dreamlike and unforgettable experience, a highlight of any voyage in Vietnam.
The bay’s thousands of towering karsts, cloaked in green vegetation and sculpted into fantastical shapes over millions of years, create a labyrinth of hidden channels, secret lagoons and dramatic grottoes. Gliding among them, especially in the soft light of dawn or dusk, reveals scenery of extraordinary and otherworldly beauty.
Hidden caves, floating fishing villages and secluded coves reveal themselves at every turn, while the calm, jade-green water invites swimming and exploration by tender or kayak. The sheer scale and drama of the bay make it one of the natural wonders of the world.
Ashore and afloat, the region offers fresh seafood, warm hospitality and a rich culture shaped by life on the water. Its beauty is unforgettable.
With its thousands of limestone karsts and emerald waters, Ha Long Bay is one of the most spectacular seascapes on earth. Guests can cruise among dramatic towering islands, explore hidden caves and lagoons and marvel at one of the great natural wonders of the world.
