3-hour boat tour of Lan Ha Bay from Cat Ba is the perfect choice for budget-conscious travellers who still want to experience the very best the bay has to offer. We offer exclusively private tours with options for either a morning or afternoon session (the latter including a sunset view). During this half-day excursion, you will kayak to lesser-known spots and swim at secluded, quiet beaches. On the return journey to the harbour, you will view the 700-year-old Cai Beo floating fishing village, home to the local community. Afternoon tours offer the chance to witness a stunning sunset (from May to early November) and, with a bit of luck, spot diving birds. Itinerary: Departure at 08:00 – Return at 11:00, or Departure at 13:00 – Return at 16:00 (you may choose your preferred time). Hotel pickup in Cat Ba.
