2 Days 1 Night Climbing Trip

Day 1 Deep Water Solo - Kayaking - Kayak at night to see plankton - Sleep on floating house or boat.

8:00am: The boat picks up passengers to Lan Ha Bay for the Deep Water Solo tour. Deep water solo routes are graded between 4+ to 7c+.

Then the boat will cruise to the first wall called Sea Face, meanwhile the tour guides will explain and give you some tips about the jumping and landing techniques. Before each climb, they'll explain the name, grade and some hard movements you might need in the climb. At first, you'll start with a basic one (4a, 5m high) to get to know the feeling of jumping and correct your landing techniques, then based on your strength and climbing skills, our guides will recommend the next routes for you to try. There are about 15 routes on Sea Face, graded from 4a to 7a, mostly they're from 5a to 6b. There are also some traverse routes if you don't want to jump from a too high level.

Next Challenge: The Three Brothers Wall

• After conquering Sea Face, the adventure continues as we cruise to our second climbing spot — Three Brothers. This wall is more challenging and suited for climbers looking to push their limits. It features around 18 routes, graded from 5b to 7c+, offering a wide variety of lines for those seeking technical climbs, power moves, and higher jumps.
• Whether you're working on endurance, technique, or simply looking for that adrenaline rush, Three Brothers delivers the perfect combination of challenge and stunning scenery.

There is no time limit in climbing – this is the first step to introduce you to climbing technique, challenge and defeat your own fear. Our guides will be your coaches and supporters to help you complete the climbing routes. During the trip, the guides will give you a course about tying the figure 8-knots, communicating in technical terms, and you’ll learn the names of different movements on the wall. A quick introduction about the climbing devices will help you understand the importance of safety in climbing.
• The reward for every climb is the wonderful view of Lan Ha Bay from the top of the route. The guides will lower you down, then you can relax on the beach or swimming in the refreshing water.
