The theme letter for our travel pics this week is V, for Vietnam.
Our first in this series comes from Halong Bay – and it’s a flotilla of kayaks, just waiting for tourists to go paddling.
The karsts (or limestone outcrops) of Halong Bay are fascinating – and for many, the best way to explore them is in a kayak, like these … paddling around the bay, into caves that open up into large open areas…
For others,bamboo boats (piloted by strong, wiry, energetic locals) is the way to go – but either way, a paddle around Halong Bay is a brilliant way to spend a day.
Hey, I really enjoyed this post. Kayaking on Halong Bay was undoubtedly my favourite part of visiting the North of Vietnam. Fantastic blog.

Shirley and I didn’t actually go kayaking (Shirl has a bad back, so we took a bamboo boat instead) – buy it was a great afternoon – and we loved the whole Halong Bay part of our Vietnam trip
