Visitors will stay in comfortable sea-facing cabins, enjoy seafood on the boat and participate in many outdoor activities such as kayaking through caves, swimming in the turquoise waters or cycling to explore the fishing villages along the bay.

Many yachts today also integrate high-class resort services such as spas, Vietnamese cooking classes, sunset parties on the deck or taichi practice sessions in the early morning amidst thousands of typical limestone islands of the World Natural Heritage Ha Long Bay.
