Halong Bay

For 2 days I lived on a ‘junk’ boat, with 12 other equally adventurous souls. Lost admidst 950 miles of mysterious limestone formations rising out of the clear, emerald waters of the Gulf of Bac Bo. Meals of fresh caught fish, a morning of kayaking, cave exploration and beaches…some of the most wondrous natural sights I have yet seen, disconnected from all that resembles reality. A beautiful sensation of complete freedom.

Sunset from the roof deck…followed by a night beneath the stars drinking Vietnamese wine (some things are better left to the French…)

The friendly yet fiesty girl from whom I bought many an exotic fruit. Indeed, a floating fruitstand!

    Peak season is May to October, when visibility is at its best,
    although it’s also the hottest time of the year. Different motorized
    as well manual boats are available to undergo adventure cruise tours within the
    bay. With no sign of redundancy, it is welcomed to book the seaplane
    ticket and enjoy staying on the Legend Halong to roam around
    the breathtaking Bays.
