Vietnam’s Uniquely Beautiful Waters
Ha Long Bay, Northern Vietnam’s most iconic destination, is renowned for its breathtaking emerald waters and towering limestone karsts. Often likened to a scene from a movie, where it has made numerous appearances, the bay exudes an almost otherworldly beauty. Its name, meaning “descending dragon,” originates from an ancient legend of a mighty dragon sent to protect the Vietnamese people.
Ha Long Bay is home to approximately 1,600 limestone islands, some dating back over 20 million years. Visitors can explore the bay’s enchanting caves, dive into its crystal-clear waters, or embark on a scenic cruise through its breathtaking landscape. No matter how you choose to spend your time, Ha Long Bay promises an unforgettable adventure.

Faq?
There are cruises for all budgets: you can spend as little as $60 per person for a day trip all the way up to $350 for a luxury overnight cabin. You get what you pay for – better food and accommodation the higher up the scale you go.
The crime levels are relatively low here. There are also no sharks. Any safety concerns surround the fact that safety regulations don’t always match the high standards you would expect. So, be sure to choose your activity guides carefully.
The bay is roughly 579 square miles – so lots to explore! You’re unlikely to see everything so be sure to prioritise. It’s also home to over 1600 fisherman who undoubtedly have many stories to tell if you happen to meet one.
