Description
The only way to truly appreciate the magnificent scenery of Ha Long Bay is by scenic flight.. Using a seaplane is the most luxurious way to explore Halong Bay from the sky. Rather than just joining a cruise tour to explore Halong Bay, travelers can now take a seaplane to admire the marvelous beauty of the bay from above. Taking off and landing on the water at Tuan Chau Marina, our 25-minute scenic flight showcases the highlights of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ha Long Bay. We offer a completely different perspective than from a cruise ship. From the air, the many islands appear like mountain ranges, the embodiment of ""Ha Long"", meaning ""descending dragon"".

Hạ Long Bay
Taking off and landing on the water at Tuan Chau Marina, our 25-minute scenic flight showcases the highlights of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Ha Long Bay, offering a completely different perspective than from a cruise ship. From the air, the many islands appear like mountain ranges, the embodiment of ""Ha Long"", meaning ""descending dragon"". Scenic highlights: Dau Be Island: Located in the southeast of Ha Long Bay, Dau Be Island is 500m east of Hang Trai Island, and about 28 km from Bai Chay Cruise Port. The island is part of an archipelago on the outer route of Ha Long Bay (gateway to Lan Ha Bay) Cong Do Island: Situated in Bai Tu Long Bay, southeast of Ha Long Bay, and 25km from Bai Chay Cruise Port, Cong Do Island is part of the natural World Heritage area. Bo Hon Island: Bo Hon rightfully appears on every list of most beautiful islands in Ha Long Bay, not only for its fantastic scenery but because it comprises one of the largest island chains in Ha Long Bay.
Cong Do (Cống Đỏ) or "Red Drainage" in English, is a small island at approximately 24 square kilometers in size. Just like so many of the other islands around Halong Bay, Cong Do is very diverse in its flora and fauna. In the lagoons that are found around the island, there’s an abundance of sea life in the form of squid, crab, various fish, and underwater vegetation.
