#6 Halong Bay cruise with swimming pool
When visiting Halong Bay, travelers highly appreciate the luxurious facility of a swimming pool on a cruise ship. Although surprising to some, it serves as a space for relaxation and entertainment for tourists, with children, in particular, enjoying the safety it provides compared to swimming in the sea.
Not only is the swimming pool a fun spot for entertainment, but it also serves as a stylish “check-in” location for those seeking to capture beautiful memories of their youth and joyful trips. As a result, cruise vessels with swimming pools are great choices for families and young tourists. In this article, Vivu Halong will introduce the top Halong Bay and Lan Ha Bay cruises with the most luxurious swimming pools to help you choose the perfect cruise for your trip.
How is the swimming pool on Halong Bay cruise?
- Area-wise, the swimming pools on Halong Bay cruises are relatively small, ranging from 30m2 to 50m2, depending on the specific cruise ship, due to the ship’s structure and size. They are not as spacious as those found in resorts or large hotels on land.
- In terms of depth, the swimming pools are shallow, with a depth of only around 1m – 1.4m, which is safe for both adults and children.
- Typically, the swimming pool is located at the bow or stern of the cruise ship, usually on the first or second deck.
- It’s worth noting that while many cruise ships advertise swimming pools, only a few luxury cruises have them. Most others have small hot tubs (or jacuzzi tubs). In the next section, we also provide a list of cruises with hot tubs for your reference.
