Overview

The magnificent Huong Hai Sealife Cruise cuts quite a shape in Bai Tu Long Bay, comprising part of the bay’s deluxe cruises and one of the most trusted and respected companies to ply the waters of the Gulf of Tonkin. Our 26 elegant cabins are well-designed and contain superb features, revolving mostly around the large windows through which the bay comes alive in front of you. This is a theme that runs throughout the Huong Hai Sealife Cruise, reaching its dining room and massage rooms, with a sundeck for true 360° panoramic perfection.
Our itinerary takes us through the less-explored Bai Tu Long Bay, offering the same limestone seascape as Halong Bay but eschewing the crowds for which the UNESCO site has recently become known. We understand that the appeal of the bay is in its ‘castaway’ atmosphere, so we take you the its quietest locations, where the world swings by just for us.
