Depending on the traffic around the quay we will paddle from the floating station into the bay or go with the support boat to a less busy area to begin paddling. Lan Ha Bay offers spectacular karst formations, stunning beaches, floating villages, caves and hidden lagoons you can explore by stand up paddle board (SUP). Our SUP route is Lan Ha Bay – Ba Trai Dao Lagoon. Along the paddling route we will explore many beautiful lagoons and deserted beaches. Ba Trai Dao is a big and open lagoon with many tiny beaches. Upon arrival in Ba Trai Dao, we will have seafood BBQ on beach. After lunch we will continue to paddle around Ba Trai Dao and swim in emerald water (if the weather allows).
