Bo Hon Island Travel Guide

Bo Hon Island is a beautiful island in Halong Bay, and one of the largest in the area. It is about 1.5 hours from Bai Chay although we took much longer to reach it, as we were cruising slowly and enjoying the view along the way. This limestone island consists of towering limestone hillocks.

And Bo Hon Island has an added attraction, Sung Sot Cave, the largest cave system in Halong Bay. The view from the mouth of Sung Sot Cave down to Bo Hon Bay is simply one of the most picturesque in Halong Bay.

How to go to Bo Hon Island

The easiest way to reach Bo Hon Island is to book a tour of Halong Bay,making sure it includes Sung Sot Cave, as it is located on Bo HonIsland. If you wish to use the tour that I used, you can contact MrsMoon of Golden Sun Hotel, 23 Hang Hahn Street, phone: +84-4-8286316, email: goldensun_hotel@yahoo.com.Tell her that Tim of AsiaExplorers sent you, and perhaps you'd get adiscount. No, I am not getting any commission from Mrs Moon, but Iwould recommend any establishments that satisfied me, so that, should Ireturn to GoldenSun Hotel, I can expect VIP treatment!
