Erina Cruise moors her vessel at a private bathing spot. You can choose to lounge on the sundeck, take a dip in the jacuzzi pool, or remain on board. Once returning at Erina Cruise, take part in the festivities as the sun sets. At 18:30, a cookery demonstration will happen.

Before being moved to a day boat for the day trips, have breakfast and gather your luggage. At 8:30 or 9:00, the day boat arrives to take you to the deeper portion of Lan Ha Bay. After arriving on Cat Ba Island, you begin your journey to Viet Hai Village. Enjoy the fresh air, see the deep vegetation, and interact with the residents by going on a five-kilometer bike ride around the hamlet. An additional option for the journey is an electric automobile.

On the day boat, savor a meal cooked Vietnamese-style. You have about an hour in the afternoon to go kayaking. Next, take a swim at one of the undiscovered beaches in the Ba Trai Dao region.
