The Ha Long Bay Management Board has proposed 10 new tourism and service products and the Quang Ninh Department of Tourism has introduced 2 new itineraries on Ha Long Bay, 6 new itineraries on Bai Tu Long Bay, and 6 new tours of Van Don district and Bai Tu Long National Park.

Earlier this year, the People's Committee of Quang Ninh province issued a tourism development plan focused on new, unique, and highly competitive tourism products, especially high-end resorts exploiting nature and culture, and the World’s Natural Wonders of Ha Long Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay. The plan is to expand the tourism space in Bai Tu Long Bay, Van Don, Co To, and nearby islands. Quang Ninh is determined to build a tourism brand called “A wonder of 4 seasons".

Quang Ninh will put into operation 62 new tourism products this year. Eleven products will involve Ha Long Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay, including a day with a fisherman from Vung Vieng fishing village, traditional dragon boat racing on Ha Long Bay, a restaurant cruise and wedding ceremony on Ha Long Bay, and a sightseeing and sleeping cruise on Ha Long Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay.

Quang Ninh’s beautiful beaches and islands attract summer tourists with luxury cruises, island sightseeing, cave exploration, water sports, and marine cuisine.
