In the Ngọc
Vừng - Quan Lạn islands itinerary,
one will visit Cống Tây Island,
which lies at the Bái Tử Long Bay,
40 km away from the Bãi Cháy Tourist
Wharf. From Cẩm Phả, express boats
will take you 30 minutes or 90
minutes by common boats to reach
Cống Tây Island.
Cống Tây Island is considered the
Cinderella in a legendary tale. The
Cẩm Phả Coal Construction and Port
Company built a resort in the island
to attract holidaymakers. A system
of villas and restaurants lies very
close to the beach. Red brick-paved,
coconut-lined roads lead from the
villas to the beach. Hammocks are
available here and there for
tourists to relax and view the sea.
