I just took part in a fishing tour in Lan Ha Bay, starting from Cat Ba Island with Chans Tien Anh. It was really enjoyable. Chans is a fishing enthusiast who first took me to a kind of lake in the bay, nestled between karst rocks. At high tide, the bay fills the lake; at low tide, the lake drains back into the bay. Chans’s favorite fishing spot is right at the intersection. At high tide, you fish in the lake where the bay water rushes in. At low tide, you fish on the other side of the intersection, where the lake water flows out into the bay. This spot is teeming with small fish—we caught a good dozen. Chans also took me to the inner lake in search of bigger fish, but none showed up. According to him, fish are less active in winter (it was around 22–23°C), but when it’s warmer, it’s apparently crazy—he reels in a fish almost every cast. Once the fishing session was over, Chans took me to a floating restaurant near the fishermen’s village, where they prepared a local specialty with our catch of the day—an incredibly delicious fish soup. All in all, it was a really pleasant activity.

Lovely views, good food and very quiet area. Bring water if you don’t want to drink purified tap water. Good with mosquito repellant!
