Sea Octopus President Cruise – 7-Hour Halong Bay Day Tour & Dinner Cruise
Sea Octopus President Cruise in Halong Bay
Sea Octopus President brings sightseeing, dining and entertainment together on a spacious day cruise in Halong Bay. Launched in 2026 as an upgrade of Sea Octopus, the vessel measures 70 metres, has four decks and accommodates up to 400 guests. Three restaurants, two sundecks and an outdoor pool offer different spaces to enjoy the bay throughout the journey.

Vivu Halong’s Local Advice
As a local travel agency in Halong, Vivu Halong helps you choose the programme that fits your schedule and interests. The day tour is a good option if you want to explore the bay’s caves and islands without staying overnight. The dinner cruise suits guests already staying in Bai Chay who want a relaxed evening meal and entertainment on the water.
Bring comfortable shoes for the steps at Sung Sot Cave and the climb on Titop Island, plus swimwear, a towel and sun protection if you plan to swim. At Luon Cave, kayaking or a bamboo boat is an optional service charged separately; you can also remain on board. If travelling from Hanoi, let us arrange a suitable transfer and confirm the port meeting time in advance.
