Though Ha Long Bay is a top tourist destination of Vietnam, most of its islands are still well-preserved. To fully explore its majestic attractions, you should spend several days here.
We highly recommend two attractions for you to add to your bucket list.
It is an ideal location for diving and swimming. You will be impressed by its deep grottoes and abundant coral, along with three island lakes. And if you want to reach the caves here, you will need to take a boat trip.
This island is famous for its huge colorful cave that houses a lot of stalagmites as well as stalactites. Notably, some of them are over 20 meters high.

This market has a bunch of small stalls with a wide range of goods from silk ao dai, chopsticks, lacquerware, dolls, tea sets, to name a few. One important thing that you should remember is that you should bargain half of offered prices.

Ha Long Bay belongs to Northern Vietnam so the weather here is similar to that of Hanoi. The climate features humid and tropical monsoon weather. It has four seasons clearly with the own features of weather.
October – December is the best time for you to visit the bay as the weather is quite pleasant. The temperature is just about 13°C-21°C, and the humidity level is also much lower, which is ideal for you to move around and explore the beauty of the bay.
