According to Quy Coc Tu, when coming to Lan Ha Bay, tourists should not miss the kayaking experience. Kayaking is the easiest way to access the wild beauty of islands lying on the blue sea, also the only way to help visitors explore the limestone arches through the underground caves of millions of years. In addition, kayaking also gives you impressive check-in pictures and the opportunity to enjoy the sunlight shining down on the sea surface reflected on the beautiful cliffs and cave arches.

The picture above captures a secret cave, where there is a very round and beautiful natural well. The only entrance is the cave arch. Visitors should go to this place on a sunny day and around noon to 15 o'clock to watch the sun miraculously shines through the limestone, which is even more vibrant as the cave is totally dark. Quy Coc Tu shared that he came to Cat Ba this time to experience the national park trekking, 11 km of primeval forest, rock climbing, and visiting Viet Hai fishing village, before returning to watch the sunset on the bay.

At the end of the year, though the tourism season in Cat Ba is over, the trekking road still attracts a lot of Western visitors. The island becomes quite deserted yet peaceful and tranquil. The first part of the road to get to this island went favorably, from the asphalt to the small dirt road, so everyone crept into the forest. The deeper you go into the forest, the more majestic the primeval forest becomes. (Photo: VN Express)

As the trekking through the forest ended, Quy Coc Tu and everyone in the trekking team rested and rode a bicycle to explore the 300-year-old Viet Hai fishing village. The village is beautiful and still preserves many features of the old countryside. In addition to the main road, visitors should go deep inside the village's lanes to get a deeper understanding of local life here. From the village to the Viet Hai pier, visitors will have to cross two rows of interlocking trees, then go through the 100 m long cave which brings a sense of adventure. (Photo: VN Express)
