Sunset Tour Itinerary in Lan Ha Bay on Skyway Cruise

The Lan Ha Bay Sunset Tour on Skyway Cruise is suitable for travelers who want a relaxing afternoon on the bay without spending the entire day on the water. The itinerary is quite light, with short travel times and enough breaks, making it suitable for families, couples, and groups visiting Cat Ba for a short trip.

One thing many travelers enjoy about this journey is the comfortable onboard space. After kayaking or swimming, guests can relax in the two air-conditioned floors instead of staying outside on the deck the whole time like many standard sunset tours.

14:30 – Pick-up in Cat Ba Town Center

Skyway Cruise shuttle service picks guests up from hotels in Cat Ba town center before heading to Beo Harbor to start the trip.

If you stay in the center area, travel time is quite short, so there’s no need to prepare too early. First-time visitors are recommended to bring swimwear or light clothing for kayaking and swimming later in the tour.

15:00 – Check-in on Skyway Cruise & Welcome Drink

After boarding, guests check in and enjoy a welcome drink while Skyway Cruise begins sailing through Lan Ha Bay.

The most popular area on the cruise is the rooftop sundeck with open views over the bay. Many travelers choose this area for photos thanks to the swimming pool, chill seating area, and panoramic limestone island scenery.

Inside the cruise is a two-floor air-conditioned lounge, suitable for guests who want to relax or avoid the summer heat.

The Lan Ha Bay Sunset Tour 1

15:15 – Visit Cai Beo Floating Fishing Village

The first stop of the journey is Cai Beo Fishing Village — one of the oldest floating fishing villages in the Cat Ba area.

From the sundeck, guests can observe floating houses surrounded by limestone mountains and experience the daily life of local fishermen on the bay. During the early afternoon, the water is usually calm, making the scenery more open and easier for photography.

15:40 – Check-in at Turtle Islet, Lan Ha Bay

After leaving the fishing village area, the cruise continues passing Turtle Islet — one of the iconic landmarks of Lan Ha Bay.

This is one of the favorite photo spots during the journey because the cruise moves slowly through the limestone islands, creating beautiful panoramic views. On sunny days, the lighting at this time is especially good for taking photos on the sundeck or near the rooftop swimming pool.

The Lan Ha Bay Sunset Tour 2

16:00 – Kayaking at Hang Tai Keo & Swimming

This is usually the most active part of the Lan Ha Bay Sunset Tour.

Skyway Cruise stops at a calm-water area where guests can kayak between limestone islands and explore the Hang Tai Keo area. Even first-time kayakers usually find this route quite easy because the water is generally calm with very small waves.

After kayaking, guests can freely swim in the bay or try the giant water slide from the cruise into the sea. This activity is especially popular with young travelers and families with older children.

If you prefer not to join water activities, you can relax on the sundeck or enjoy the air-conditioned indoor area on the cruise.

17:30 – Sunset Party on the 3rd Floor Sundeck

The most beautiful moment of the journey usually begins when the sun slowly sets behind the limestone mountains of Lan Ha Bay.

Guests return to the cruise and enjoy a light sunset party with fruits, cakes, and drinks in a relaxing atmosphere on the third-floor sundeck.

Many travelers enjoy this part of the trip because the atmosphere becomes calmer after the water activities. Some guests choose to sit in the outdoor seating area to watch the sunset, while couples and groups often take photos around the swimming pool and rooftop during the golden light of late afternoon.

18:00 – Return to Beo Harbor

After the sunset party, Skyway Cruise returns to Beo Harbor as evening begins.

The shuttle bus then takes guests back to hotels in Cat Ba town center. For short-stay travelers, this timing is still convenient for dinner, seaside walks, or exploring Cat Ba night market after the tour.

Tips for First-Time Travelers Joining the Skyway Sunset Tour

If this is your first time joining the Lan Ha Bay Sunset Tour on Skyway Cruise, preparing a few small things in advance will make the trip more comfortable and help you enjoy the experience better.

  • Bring 2 outfits or more if you enjoy taking photos: one for check-in on the cruise and another to change into after swimming or kayaking. The time near sunset on the sundeck is especially beautiful for photos, so many guests prefer changing clothes after water activities.
  • You do not need to know how to swim to kayak: before kayaking, the guide will explain the basic techniques and monitor guests throughout the activity. The Hang Tai Keo area is usually calm, making it suitable even for first-time kayakers.
  • Bring a waterproof bag for your phone: especially if you want to film while kayaking or using the water slide. If you forget, waterproof bags can also be purchased directly on the cruise.
  • Bring some cash or prepare payment in advance: mobile signal and internet connection in the middle of the bay can sometimes be unstable, making bank transfers more difficult.
  • Check if your travel date includes a Saturday surcharge: the tour currently applies an extra fee on Saturday evenings and some summer peak dates.
  • Families with children should check the child policy in advance: discounts vary depending on the child’s age, so checking beforehand makes it easier to estimate the total trip cost.
