<--------- You shouldn't do this in Halong bay

Yes, We go…even Rain or Shine!

Don’t worry if it is raining on the morning of your SEACANOE VIETNAM trip, it will not affect your day out.
* You will be traveling in the bay on a covered escort boat
* Ha Long bay is protected and you are unlikely to encounter rough seas
* Rain in the tropics usually lasts a short time and often if it is raining on the island, it is clear in the bay
* When we paddle you in the bay, you will be in caves and under overhangs, protected from rain.
Please note that we cannot accept cancellations due to bad weather.
Don’t worry; you will still have a great day out. See you on the water!

Some Tips from Our Halong Bay Kayaking Guide :

• Use sandal because sometimes you have to walk to pull your kayak boat.
• If you cannot swim at least on 25 meter, please using the life jackets.
• In the summer time (from May to September) , it's very hot in Halong bay (about 30 to 38 C degree). You should bring with you your sun-bath cream.
• The swimming clothes are the best for Kayaking in Halong bay.
• Don't sing or shout to loud because the monkey or some animals can hear and run away.
• Dont't touch to any jellyfishs in the lagoon because may be they are poisonous.
• Don't touch to the rock edges in the cave because it's very sharp.
