Located right in the heart of Bai Chay, adjacent to the Sun World Halong Complex, Ha Long International Cruise Port is not just a special-grade port traffic facility but also Vietnam’s first dedicated international cruise passenger port. It’s the perfect starting point for an unforgettable journey to explore the magnificent beauty of Ha Long Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay.
Prime Location and Impressive Architecture
Ha Long International Cruise Port boasts a strategic location, offering convenient connections to Ha Long city’s renowned tourist attractions. From here, visitors can easily access entertainment areas, restaurants, and high-end hotels, ensuring a comfortable and complete travel experience.
Notably, the port’s passenger terminal was designed by the acclaimed architect Bill Bensley – dubbed the “King of Exotic Resorts.” With its unique architecture, a sophisticated blend of traditional Vietnamese culture and European design, the expansive 4,500m² (some sources indicate 7,600m²) terminal is more than just a place for procedures. It’s an attractive destination in itself, featuring shopping areas, dining options, and art spaces, providing a luxurious experience from the moment you arrive.
Two Distinct Port Areas for Diverse Experiences
To cater to the varied needs of visitors, Ha Long International Cruise Port is divided into two main areas:
- International Port: This area welcomes large cruise ships and ultra-luxury international yachts, capable of accommodating two vessels up to 225,000 GT simultaneously. This section is equipped with modern facilities, ensuring quick and convenient immigration and customs procedures for international visitors.
- Domestic Port: This serves tourist boats taking visitors to explore Ha Long Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay. With a domestic wharf length of up to 1,350m, this area can accommodate hundreds of tourist boats, handling a large daily influx of visitors. From here, tourists can choose from diverse itineraries to discover majestic limestone karsts, enchanting caves, and ancient fishing villages.
Elevating Ha Long’s Marine Tourism
The establishment of Ha Long International Cruise Port has created a significant “boost” for Quang Ninh’s tourism industry in particular, and Vietnam’s in general. The port not only enhances the capacity to welcome international visitors by sea but also contributes to positioning Ha Long as one of the world’s leading marine tourism destinations.
With its modern infrastructure, professional services, and an undeniably beautiful location, Ha Long International Cruise Port is a symbol of Quang Ninh’s tourism development, offering memorable experiences for every visitor to the World Heritage Bay.
