Day 3: Halong Bay
The sailing junks navigating past over 3,000 limestone islands and outcrops jutting out of the clear and emerald water of the bay make for a marvelous scene.

The huge breakfast is a perfect way to start our relaxing day. We weave our way past many islets of various shapes and sizes to visit Sung Sot cave, one of the many hidden grottoes beneath towering cliffs.
