Our commitment extends beyond our ships to the communities and environment we cherish
Partnering with Local Communities
We source over 80% of our provisions from local fishermen and farmers, supporting the regional economy while reducing our carbon footprint. Our crew recruitment prioritizes local talent, providing stable employment and skills development.
Through our "Bay to Table" program, we connect guests with authentic local experiences, from visiting floating fishing villages to learning traditional cooking methods from area chefs.

Environmental Education & Cleanups
We organize monthly beach cleanups with guest participation, removing plastic waste and debris from Ha Long's pristine shores. Since 2020, our efforts have collected over 5 tons of marine debris.
Our onboard naturalists provide daily educational sessions about the bay's unique ecosystem, conservation challenges, and how travelers can minimize their environmental impact both during and after their cruise.
