What to expect

  1. Pass by
    Guide meets you at your hotel or our Cat Ba office. Transfer to Cat Ba Ecolodge (approx. 20–25 minutes).
  2. 30m · Admission ticket included
    Bikes fitted, route briefing, water and snacks packed for the ride.
  3. Xuan Dam
    1h
    Easy-paced ride along village roads — rice fields, everyday village life, passing near Xuan Dam Golf Course.

    An informal stop at a local garden or home along the route — flowers, a vegetable patch, whatever the season and the household have to show that day. Not a staged visit, just a chance to see how people here actually live, with a moment to chat through your guide.
  4. 2h · Admission ticket included
    Bikes parked at the trailhead; a 20–30 minute walk down a rocky path leads to Chut Chit — a small, quiet beach still mostly known only to locals. No facilities here, which is exactly the point: clear water, white sand, and a beach to yourselves. CBWD provides a light picnic to enjoy on the sand.
  5. 30m · Admission ticket included
    Back on the bikes, continuing along Route 356 toward Cat Don. A short stop at Goi Temple, a small temple tucked into the hills — a quiet spiritual site woven into local village life, rarely visited by outsiders.
