The dusk is a beautiful time on Halong Bay. As the day draws to a close and the sun dips into the green of the ocean, night falls softly on the Bay. Stars shyly reveal themselves as the night turns an inky black. Sit on the sundeck with a cocktail or wine and enjoy a Paradise Happy hour, listening to the sounds of the ocean welcoming the dark. And for photographers, the best time of year to capture a perfect Halong Bay sunset is June to July between 5:30 and 6:00 PM.

The mysterious limestone caves on Halong Bay's bigger islands and the incredible sunsets meanwhile are two sights not to be missed.
