[2025 Haiphong Attraction] Travel Guide for Lan Ha Bay (Updated Mar)

2024 Vietnam Family Travel Day5 🪧Cai Beo Floating Fishing Village Visit a 7,000-year-old fishing village in Vietnam Cai Beo, located in the Cat Ba Islands on Cat Hai Island near Hai Phong City, is considered the oldest fishing village in Vietnam and attracts tourists with its beautiful scenery, cultural values ​​and diverse, fresh seafood. There are more than 400 households in the village, and their livelihoods mainly come from fishing and aquaculture. Cai Beo is the most important archaeological site in the coastal areas and islands of northeastern Vietnam. 🪧 Canoeing and water sports in Lan Ha Bay Lan Ha Bay is located in the south of the famous Halong Bay, surrounding Cat Ba Island. The scenery of Lan Ha Bay is exactly the same as that of Halong Bay, but it is not as famous as Halong Bay. Because the transportation to Lan Ha Bay is very inconvenient, it can only be reached by boat. Most tourists choose Halong Bay, which has more convenient transportation, so the locals call Lan Ha Bay "the forgotten paradise" We kayaked and swam in the sea here After the activity, we had lunch on the boat With the beautiful scenery, it suddenly felt very romantic 🪧Haigu Village A secluded village There are 90 households in the village The village is open all year round and the public security is very good The villagers are friendly and help each other You need to take an electric car to enter the village We took a car to visit the village And did what they call foot spa It turned out to be very similar to our hot spring fish eating foot skin But their fish are very big and hungry It feels very prickly when you put your feet down I don't dare to stretch it down because it hurts I think the fish is not eating my foot skin at all But it wants to eat my flesh😂 End of Haigu Village Our itinerary for today is probably over My body is so sticky Go back to the hotel to take a shower Today's activities are relatively large Tomorrow everyone unanimously agreed Sleep until you wake up naturally😂

If you are going to the north of vietnam you probably want to check out the world famous Ha Long Bay but i recommend you to go to Cat Ba island and check out this even more beautiful Lan Ha Bay. This bay is more secluded and less touristy. The tours from Cat Ba ventures take you to all the great spots in the Bay and are more affordable then the overpriced tours in Ha Long Bay

#fallingforfall Pictures speak louder than words ✌️ How to get there: Hanoi, 3h by bus and ferry to Cat Ba and then with a local boat What’s to see: beautiful nature Time needed: extended weekend, 3-4days. Best in autumn to escape cold Shanghai 🍂 Don’t forget to bring your drone for some of these beautiful aerial shots 🛸 IG: andykoh_m8 #germaninchina #travellifestyle #aroundtheworld

Experience Halong Bay from a whole new perspective by kayaking through its emerald waters! While on a cruise, you’ll have the chance to hop into a kayak and explore the bay’s hidden gems—up close and personal. Gliding through narrow caves, discovering secluded lagoons, and paddling beneath towering limestone karsts feels like stepping into another world. 🌄 As you paddle, you might spot local fishing villages, curious monkeys on the cliffs, or colorful marine life beneath the crystal-clear water. Some spots are only accessible by kayak, so it’s your ticket to uncovering Halong Bay’s best-kept secrets. 🌟 Insider Tips: 1️⃣ Wear quick-drying clothes—you’ll likely get splashed! 2️⃣ Bring a waterproof bag for your camera or phone. 3️⃣ Keep an eye on the tide; the caves can change dramatically with water levels. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced paddler, kayaking in Halong Bay is a must-do for adventure seekers and nature lovers alike! 🌿✨ #voyagevibes

Amazing sunrise and sunset on this 2 day cruise. I could not get enough of it. #travel #typhoon #vietnam

La Nya 102 Hồng Bàng, Tân Lập, Nha Trang, Khanh Hoa 650000 Vietnam It looked like a warehouse-style restaurant with a high ceiling. I visited because it was Vietnamese home cooking, but there were many Koreans and the menu was typical of Vietnamese restaurants. It seemed like they ate a lot of tofu dishes and rice noodles, but I wanted to eat beer snacks and rice, so I ordered beer, garlic fried rice, and shrimp tempura. I think it's a combination that can't be bad. It was cheese shrimp tempura, I don't remember the name, but it was really delicious. It was crispy and crunchy and really delicious without sauce. Make sure to ask for soy sauce for the garlic fried rice. Without it, it tasted a little bland. There was no sauce container on the table here. The shrimp was so delicious that it was good to drink two bottles of beer during the day. #Nha Trang restaurants #Nha Trang city restaurants #Nha Trang travel #Lana #Vietnam hot places #100 travel styles

No need to visit the busy and touristy Ha Long bay. When in vietnam, visit Lan Ha bay instead. Book a one day tour and experience floating villages, kayaking, and swimming. Food on the boat is amazing local food which is included in the price of the trip. Price of trip booked through our hostel was 650,000 VND per person (190 RMB / 27 USD) Amazing local guide taught us everything we needed to know #localguides #vietnam #daytrip #trip

Lan Ha Bay is made up of around 300 karst islands and limestone sea rocks and can be found southeast of Cat Ba Island. As a geological extension of Halong Bay, Lan Ha Bay is equally as beautiful although it is less visited, less inhabited and therefore has the extra appeal of being a more peaceful place.

Freedom Island is small island of 400 islands in Lan Ha Bay, it’s the only island with 2 beaches. At the front side of the island, you can use kayak to explore the surrounded small islands, swimming and taking sunbath At the back side of the island, you can join in some sport activities such as playing volleyball or using hammocks under the cool casuarina trees to enjoy the sound of wind and waves.
