This is area belong to Halong bay, but it’s on the border of Halong Bay, Bai Tu Long Bay and Lan Ha Bay.

It’s far from Surprise cave area around 2kms and will be take 02 hour more. The system of islets is really imposing.

Just at the base of the islands, there is an arched entrance leads to the grotto right at the water level. Passing through the natural entrance, visitor will see a tranquil round lake, surrounded by luxuriant trees and different sized stone walls.

There are weeping fig trees shading inside and many orchids hang their sweet-scented flowers.

The Dark Cave is the long and dark one, which will require a torch to be handed for visitors beforehand. In contrast, the Bright Cave is short, and you can see the other bright side from this side

Exploring Dark and Bright cave, the best way is doing kayaking and swimming through the tunnel.

While the Bright Cave is always available, the Dark Cave can be swallowed by the tide and difficult to pass through.

Surely, you will surprise with amazing limestone islets and mountain in this area.

Controlling your kayak and explore each corner of Dark and Bright cave by your style.

There are Benjamin fig trees shade the landscape and many orchids hang their sweet-scented flowers. In the lake, many species abound: shrimp, fish, crab and cuttle-fish.

Inside the grotto, the lake is surrounded by mountains. On the cliff one still find traces of fossils of fresh-water snails, which prove that men used to live there and this must have been a deep valley then.

The beauty of the Dark and Bright cave  is the mingling of a number of factors: the mountain’s size and form, the color of the water and the clouds.

We provide values that go beyond just a trip

At Cat Ba Express, we not only bring you to the most beautiful places of Cat Ba Island and Lan Ha Bay but also foster a connection to the locals you meet and the cultural values they embrace in our homeland. We believe traveling can be the best way to connect with the mysterious and stunning world, but more importantly, to connect us with the balance inside us. Lay eyes on the top view of Lan Ha Bay, walk with a light heart in Ba Trai Dao, and tread humbly through the wonders of life where you are calm, escape from the chaotic city madness, and hear your own heart beating.

Our Passion

Cat Ba Express started with endless love and passion for our homeland: Cat Ba and Lan Ha Bay. 5 years ago, we began as just a bus company, but as time flies, we conquered the road to many other services: Lan Ha Bay Day cruise, an overnight cruise, national park trekking and so on. We're moving ahead day by day for more unique destinations and experiences with the belief in the incredible impossibilities of endless roads.

Why We Do This?

Lying to the south of Halong Bay off the northeastern coast of Vietnam, the 300-or-so karst islands and limestone outcrops of Lan Ha are just as gorgeous as those of its superstar neighbour but feel more isolated and untouched. There're tons of tour and bus agencies in Cat Ba you can easily find. Though they're doing well, they tell only half of the story: hitting the tourist hot spots and crowded places just to take coveted photos, transferring by the old and low ferry boat, and booking once for all services is challenging. Keeping these downsides in mind, we designed a rare bridge that allows you unrivalled access to the true Cat Ba and Lan Ha experience.

- High-quality Bus and Speedboat transfer from Hanoi to Cat Ba which is faster and far more convenient - One day Lan Ha Bay in Serenity Premium Cruise - the most spacious day cruise in Lan Ha Bay - Overnight on Halong Serenity Cruise - the rare cruise that goes to off-the-beaten-track sites with unforgettable experiences. - National Park trekking - A real way of exploring the nature

With Vietnam's long history, cultural richness, and environmental regions as amazing as Cat Ba Island, it is no wonder that the island receives millions of tourist turns each year. As travelers, we desire to wander, explore and learn, but we put protecting the planet at the forefront. We see our responsibility to protect what beauty is left, for those who come after and to leave things better, fairer, and more sustainable. We are committed to positively impacting the environment for the future, developing better life and work opportunities for local nomads and villagers, and educating clients and communities about the needs of their surroundings.

We do not see ourselves as just tour organizers. We see each one of the team as the independent ambassador of my beloved country - Vietnam.
