- Shore Excursion: KAYAK ADVENTURE IN HALONG BAY
In 1994, UNESCO declared famed Halong Bay a World Heritage site. The bay is one of the world's natural wonders, with over 1,900 islands rising out of the sparkling green waters. Including a scenic cruise on board a private junk, kayaking the Three Cave area, and an appetizing buffet lunch, you will not soon forget this adventure.
Transfer by motorcoach to town to board your private junk for a scenic cruise through spectacular scenery. Sailing in Halong Bay, see hundreds of steep limestone outcrops that have been the source of legends for centuries. Watch for Man's Head Island, resembling a man looking towards the mainland; Dragon Island, looking like a dragon hovering above the turquoise water; La Vong Island resembling an old man fishing, along with many others. At the core of the islands, there are impressive caves and grottoes.
Later your junk drops anchor and it is time to board a 2-person kayak for a guided paddle in the Ba Hang, or Three Caves area. After working up an appetite, reboard the junk to enjoy a delicious seafood and vegetable lunch, followed by a second kayak excursion to the Luon Cave and fishing village.
Mid-afternoon the junk takes you on a relaxing cruise back to town.
