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.
Cong Do Island: Situated in Bai Tu Long Bay, southeast of Ha Long Bay, and 25km from Bai Chay Cruise Port,
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.
