At Indochina Junk, we are committed to preserving the natural beauty of Halong Bay while providing unforgettable experiences for our guests. On March 22, 2025, we proudly hosted two meaningful environmental activities to promote sustainability and environmental awareness. These initiatives were designed to engage both our valued customers and dedicated team members in the shared mission of protecting this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Waste Collection on Halong Bay
One of the highlights of our environmental efforts was the waste collection activity, which involved both our guests and staff. This initiative aimed to keep Halong Bay pristine and to raise awareness about the importance of protecting the environment.
Indochina Junk’s staff has practiced this activities daily but this time, we invite our guests to join hand with us.
Our crew members took the lead by collecting waste on the beaches and surrounding areas. This is an ongoing effort that takes place during every 3-day, 2-night tour we offer, ensuring that these areas remain clean and beautiful.
Guests were invited to participate during the kayaking activity. Our guides and cruise managers briefed participants on the importance of this initiative and provided them with the necessary tools, including gloves, trash nets, and collection bags. While kayaking, guests had the opportunity to collect floating waste, contributing to the preservation of Halong Bay’s natural beauty.
Green Warrior Certificate
To honor their efforts, each guest who participated received a Green Warrior Certificate as a token of appreciation for their contribution to our “For A Green Halong Bay” program. Additionally, they were gifted a reusable canvas bag featuring the program’s logo, serving as a reminder of their positive impact on the environment.
Earth Hour – Turning Off the Lights for One Hour
As part of our annual tradition, Indochina Junk joined the global Earth Hour movement by turning off the lights for one hour. This symbolic act not only conserved energy but also encouraged our guests to reflect on the importance of sustainable living.
Making Earth Hour Special
To ensure this hour was both meaningful and enjoyable, our team organized engaging activities onboard:
- Candlelit Ambiance: Candles were used to create a warm, serene atmosphere.
- Music and Performances: Guests enjoyed listening to the iconic song “Heal the World” and were treated to traditional Vietnamese performances, adding a cultural touch to the evening.
- Interactive Activities: Other fun and interactive activities were also arranged to keep the energy alive while honoring Earth Hour.
Join Us for a Green Halong Bay
Halong Bay is not just a destination it’s a treasure that we all share the responsibility to protect. By involving both our staff and customers in these activities, we aim to foster a deeper connection to the environment and inspire collective action for sustainability.
At Indochina Junk, we believe that small actions, when multiplied by many, can lead to significant change. Together, we can ensure that Halong Bay remains a breathtaking natural wonder for generations to come.
We invite you to be a part of our journey towards a more sustainable Halong Bay. Whether it’s through participating in waste collection, joining us for Earth Hour, or simply being mindful of the environment during your cruise, your efforts make a difference.
Let’s work together to preserve the beauty of Halong Bay and create a greener, cleaner future for all.
