Swimming on cruise

For many tourists, swimming is an indispensable activity in each of their cruise tour. Ha Long Bay is a natural wonder but it is also home to many pristine beaches with fine white sand which is very suitable for swimming activities. However, this place attracts tourists by the more majestic natural limestone islands. Therefore, if you are looking for a relaxing time to swim, you can consider choosing a cruise with a swimming pool.

There are very few luxury cruises in Ha Long Bay that have enough space to design the swimming pool on the cruise. This is the difference and an advantage for cruises with swimming pools.

In terms of area, the swimming pools on Halong Bay cruises are relatively small, ranging in size from 30m2 to 50m2, depending on the specific type of cruise ship, due to the structure and size of the ship. They are not as spacious as large resorts or hotels on the mainland.

In terms of depth, the swimming pools are shallow, the depth is only about 1m - 1.4m, so it is safe for both adults and children. Bathing and relaxing in the swimming pool on cruises floating on Ha long Bay or  check-in in the luxury swimming pool will be a un forgettable experience for every tourist when visiting Ha Long Bay.

In all most of Ha Long cruise tour has a program that take tourists to visit the island then they are free to swim there with other activities such as kayaking… but swimming on the cruise is the most interesting and strange experience that everyone should try once in their life. You can try to immerse yourself in 4 season swimming pool on the cruise while sipping a delicious drink and enjoying the magnificent landscape right in front of your eyes while the cruise is gently gliding above the water. However, not all cruises have enough space to design a swimming pool on the cruise. Do not hesitate to choose a luxury cruise with a swimming pool to experience that feeling.
