Introducing Bai Tu Long Bay

Bai Tu Long Bay is the “quieter sibling” of Ha Long Bay — sharing the same majestic limestone scenery but less crowded, more pristine, and much more tranquil .

Location & Features

  • Located northeast of Ha Long Bay , extending to the Van Don area.
  • Also part of the World Natural Heritage site (in the same system as Ha Long Bay).
  • There are hundreds of rocky islands, pristine beaches, and fishing villages that are less affected by tourism.

Why do many people prefer Bai Tu Long Bay?

  • Fewer tourists → no crowds
  • Cleaner water, more pristine nature.
  • A more “real” experience (fishing village, fisherman’s life)
  • Suitable for vacations and honeymoons.

Simply put:

  • Ha Long = beautiful + famous + crowded
  • Bai Tu Long = beautiful + peaceful + subtly luxurious

Highlights​

  • Vung Vieng fishing village – paddle a bamboo boat, experience the life of a fisherman.
  • Co To Island – stunningly beautiful with its blue sea and white sand.
  • Thien Canh Son Cave – a less-visited cave with a high vantage point.
  • Ban Chan Beach – pristine, clear water

How to get to Bai Tu Long Bay ?

Important:

  • Few day cruises to Bai Tu Long Bay.
  • Mainly overnight cruises (2 nights 1 day / 3 nights 2 days )

Some notable yachts

  • Indochina Junk – specializing in the Bai Tu Long route, with a long-standing reputation.
  • Dragon Legend Cruise – luxury, privacy
  • Renea Cruise – reasonably priced, few customers.

  • Type: 5-star cruise ship

Day 1: Hanoi – Bai Tu Long Bay – Beginning of the Journey

8:00 – 8:30 | Pick-up in Hanoi: The cruise company’s premium D-Car limousine will pick you up at your designated meeting point (Old Quarter area or your private residence as per prior arrangement). The vehicle will travel along the modern and comfortable Hanoi – Hai Phong – Quang Ninh expressway.

11:30 – 12:00 | Arrival in Ha Long: The vehicle will dock at Ha Long International Cruise Port (Sun Group Port in Bai Chay). You will have time to relax and enjoy some tea/coffee at the cruise company’s private waiting area while staff complete the bay registration procedures.

12:15 – 12:30 | Boarding & Welcome: You will transfer to the large superyacht by tender. The crew will welcome you with chill music, warm smiles, and refreshing cold towels and welcome drinks . You will receive a short safety briefing and proceed to your cabin.

13:00 | Lunch in the heart of heritage: Enjoy a premium set menu or seafood buffet lunch at the restaurant on the 3rd floor. At this time, the cruise ship has weighed anchor, slowly gliding past Hon Gai and Cam Pha islands, and officially making its way into the tranquil emerald waters of Bai Tu Long Bay .

15:00 – 17:00 | Exploring the Pristine Core (Cap La / Cong Do): The boat anchors at an isolated, sheltered lagoon. This is when the hands-on experience begins:

  • Kayaking: You can paddle your own kayak past towering limestone cliffs, experiencing absolute tranquility as very few boats pass by.
  • Natural beach bathing: Immerse yourself in the cool waters of the pristine, small sandy beaches formed by tidal deposits at the foot of the island.

17:30 | Sunset Party & Cooking Class: Return to the ship and head to the sundeck to admire the romantic sunset painting the rocky mountain peaks red. Complimentary fruit and pastries are served, and a Happy Hour (Buy one, get one free on drinks) applies. The chef will also guide you in the art of making traditional Vietnamese spring rolls.

7:15 PM | Cozy Fine-Dining: Enjoy a luxurious dinner featuring a fusion of Asian and European flavors in the romantic ambiance of the restaurant, bathed in warm yellow lighting and featuring dark wood interiors.

8:30 PM | Ending the first day: You can try your luck on the deck with the crew by going squid fishing at night , singing karaoke, or enjoying a cocktail at the Sky Bar before drifting off to a peaceful sleep in the heart of the bay.

Day 2: Exploring the Depths of Bai Tu Long Bay

06:30 | Sunrise & Tai Chi Practice: Wake up to the gentle sound of waves lapping against the boat. Head to the sundeck for a Tai Chi class with an expert. This is a wonderful moment to breathe in the fresh air and watch the sunrise gradually appear behind the moss-covered limestone islands.

07:00 – 07:45 | Energizing Breakfast: Enjoy a light breakfast with tea, coffee, fresh pastries, and hot breakfast items at the restaurant to energize yourself for a long day of physical activity.

08:30 | Deep into the Cong Dam Ecological Reserve: The cruise ship sets sail (or you can transfer to a specialized ferry) and begins its journey further northeast, heading straight into the Cong Dam Reserve . This area is likened to an “outdoor geological museum” with limestone mountains millions of years old interspersed with secluded lagoons.

09:30 – 11:30 | Intensive Kayaking & Pristine Beach Swimming: The boat stops at a deserted beach or lagoon offshore:

  • You are free to paddle a kayak through the hidden underwater caves at the foot of the rocky mountains, admiring the pristine vegetation and natural coral reefs through the crystal-clear water.
  • Enjoy swimming in the sea, relaxing on the soft white sand, and savoring the feeling of having complete control over a corner of this world wonder.

12:00 | Unique BBQ Lunch / Fine-Dining: Enjoy a hearty seafood lunch served directly on board the cruise ship, or even better, a romantic BBQ party on a pristine beach (weather permitting and your cruise operator).

14:30 | Explore Vung Vieng Floating Fishing Village: The boat will take you to Vung Vieng Fishing Village – one of the most ancient and beautiful floating fishing villages in the heritage bay.

  • You’ll ride in a small boat , gently rowed by local fishermen, gliding past floating houses, old schools, and traditional pearl farming rafts.
  • Listen to the heartfelt stories of the nomadic life on the waterways of the local people before they were assisted in relocating to the mainland.

16:30 | Return to the main cruise ship & Relaxation: Return to the main superyacht. This is the time to treat yourself to some deep relaxation: soak in the outdoor Jacuzzi , experience a spa/massage treatment, or simply lie on a lounge chair reading a book and admiring the bay.

17:30 | Second Sunset Party: Head to the deck to enjoy fresh fruit, cocktails, and take advantage of Happy Hour (Buy 2, Get 1 Free on drinks) as the sunset paints the entire Bai Tu Long Bay in a magnificent golden-orange hue.

7:30 PM | A gourmet dinner: The restaurant serves a brand new menu (usually a combination of exquisite grilled seafood or authentic European-Asian fine-dining cuisine) to help you conclude a day of culinary exploration.

8:30 PM | Nighttime Experience: Continue trying your luck with night squid fishing , participate in board games at the bar, or simply head to your bedroom balcony to admire the bay illuminated by the twinkling lights of the surrounding ships.
