4, Tips

• Cat Ba Island is a highly popular tourist destination in Vietnam, and the best time to visit is from April to September. During this period, the island typically experiences dry and sunny weather, calm seas, and the deep blue waters of the Gulf of Tonkin. October is also a favorable choice due to cooler weather and fewer tourists compared to the peak summer season.

• Depending on the time of your travel, it is advisable to pack appropriate clothing. Detailed clothing recommendations will be provided when booking a tour with Asia Mystika.
