Overview

Your tour begins with a convenient hotel pickup (winter 4:15 PM, summer 4:00 PM). Board our boutique boat at Cai Beo terminal and cruise through the stunning scenery of Lan Ha Bay, passing by the Floating Fisherman Village. We'll head to Monkey Island, where you can keep an eye out for the playful wild residents from the boat.

As the sun sets, we'll cruise to our spot. You will enjoy one hour kayaking in the golden hour. Under the moonlight you will witness the magical glow of bioluminescent plankton illuminating the water around you.
