Halong Bay in Spring

The rocky mountains in Ha Long are inherently solid, rugged, and rough, but when it comes to spring and mixed with each layer of floating fog, they suddenly become soft and delicate. There are days when the fog is dense, it covers the view, but it inspires visitors. When the sun rises, the dew on the bay's surface fades away, leaving only a movable thin film on the tops of the island, creating an incredibly poetic picture. Many often compare Ha Long to a giant water-based painting looking at Ha Long such days.

Spring weather is quite cold, with little precipitation, which is suitable for a romantic walk or sightseeing on the deck. Due to this pleasant spring weather in Halong Bay, spring is among the peak seasons for foreign tourists and the best time to visit Halong Bay.
