Islands on Halong Bay‎: ‎ Cong Do Island

Cong Do is On the south-east side of Halong Bay, about 25km from Bai Chay jetty. Cong Do is in Bai Tu Long Bay in the region which recognised as the World Heritage.

It covers 23,363m2 and its mountain reaches a peak of 172m.

Cong Do island features many lagoons, which are the residence of numerous species of sea-life, such as shrimp, crab, fish, squid and aquatic plants. On the south-west side of the island, there is a wide coral reef displaying a myriad of colours. Coral reef ecosystem is more than 700m long and 300m wide. It is preserved almost undamaged. In the future, there are plans for the development of a zone for scuba-diving. On the south-east side of the island, vestiges of the ancient commercial port of Van Don were discovered. This confirms beliefs that Cong Do Island once held an important position in terms of foreign trade.
