The Cruise

3 Days / 2 Nights aboard the Halora Nova Cruise.

The three-day Halora Nova itinerary allows a deeper, more unhurried exploration of Lan Ha Bay and Cat Ba Island. Beyond the Ao Ech and Tra Bau lagoons and the Dark & Bright Cave, you'll cycle through the traditional Viet Hai Village in the heart of Cat Ba, kayak and swim around the Ba Trai Dao islets, and enjoy more sunrise meditation, cooking classes and handicraft workshops. With the boutique comforts of the ship, the pool, spa and sundeck, and far more time to relax, it's the choice travellers consistently recommend over a single night.
