As Asia's original sea kayak expedition company, SeaCanoe
emphasizes local conditions and culture. . We understand local politics, so we've got the only permit to overnight and/or camp in the Bay, allowing you to visit sites far from the pier rarely seen by outsiders. Although Ha Long is more than 1,000 islands, we've been researching the Bay since 1992, so you see most of the best sites while you fall into the quiet rhythm of Ha Long's spirit.
Kayaking inside limestone karsts is one of our specialties. Aside from the comforts and permits, escort boats allow you to efficiently experience the remote geology and untouched culture harbored within Ha Long's scattered limestone islands. With some tranquil sunsets and some Sunrises on the water, your should have good chances of wildlife sightings, and the eerie romance of the outer islands is unforgettable.
The first day takes you to Hang Toi, our overnighter site where you can adjust to the Bay's drama and ambiance. The next morning you motor further into the endless islands and spend the next few days circumnavigating the Bay. Each itinerary is built around the tides, but there are virtually unlimited options, and the highly technical outer islands’ Phong’s are exceptional.
Throughout your trip, you explore complicated rock gardens; paddle long dark sea caves and vis |
