Toggle1. The Perfect Setting
Lan Ha Bay, located just to the south of the famous Ha Long Bay, is a hidden gem that offers all the stunning scenery without the crowds. The bay is dotted with over 300 karst islands and limestone formations, creating a breathtaking landscape that looks like it’s been plucked straight out of a fairy tale. The calm, clear waters are perfect for kayaking, swimming, and, of course, witnessing the magical bioluminescence.
The Sunset and Glowing Plankton Tour starts with a picturesque cruise through Lan Ha Bay. As the sun dips below the horizon, the sky transforms into a canvas of vibrant colors. The reflection of the sunset on the water, coupled with the silhouette of the limestone karsts, creates a mesmerizing scene. It’s the perfect way to unwind and soak in the natural beauty of Vietnam.
