Frequently asked questions
Does the tour run if the weather is bad?
The itinerary is subject to change due to weather or sea conditions. In cases of poor weather, the operator may alter the schedule or cancel the boat crossing for safety. You will be notified as early as possible if this affects your booking.
Do I need to know how to swim to join the snorkelling?
A life jacket is provided for all participants, so non-swimmers can still enjoy the water safely. Snorkelling does benefit from basic comfort in the water, but you are not required to snorkel — swimming and relaxing on the beach are equally valid options.
Is this tour suitable for children?
Yes. Children under 5 require an infant ticket, which must be purchased directly from the tour operator rather than through this booking. Older children are welcome on the standard ticket.
Can I get a vegetarian lunch?
A vegetarian lunch option is available but must be requested in advance and is subject to availability. Note this at the time of booking to give the operator enough notice.
Where exactly does the tour pick me up?
Pickup is from your Da Nang hotel at 7:30 AM. Confirm your hotel address with the operator after booking so they can include you on the pickup route.
Is snorkelling gear provided, or should I bring my own?
Snorkelling gear is included in the price. You are welcome to bring your own if you prefer, but there is no need to purchase or hire equipment separately.
