Luon Grotto

Luon Grotto
 Situated on Bo Hòn Island, 14 km south of Bãi Cháy Beach is the Luon Grotto. In front of the grotto is Con Rùa ( Turtle) Islet, and the Sky Gate is on the right. Here the cliffs stretch vertically out of the pure blue and smooth water. At the water-level, an arched entrance leads to the grotto, just at the base of the island. The cave is 90 m long and 3.5 m wide. Passing through the pretty entrance, you come across a tranquil round lake, surrounded by luxuriant trees and high dangerous stone walls.

Monkeys run to and fro in groups, Benjamin fig trees shade the landscape and many orchids hang their sweet-scented flowers. In the lake, many species abound: shrimp, fish, crab and cuttle-fish.

The cave is one of the rare caves in Halong Bay. You could discover the cave and the peaceful lake just behind by kakyak or by bamboo boat supported by tourist ships. The beauty of the site is the mingling of a number of factors: the mountain's size and form, the color of the water and the clouds.
