Islet basks quietly in Ha Long Bay's shadow
 |
| Beo Co is one of about 600 islets in the island district of Van Don in the northern province of Quang Ninh, around two hours east of Hanoi. |
 |
| The journey from Cai Rong Port to Beo Co Islet takes 15 to 25 minutes by boat. Since tourism services have not fully developed there, visitors have to contact locals and hire the boat. |
 |
| Chu Duc Viet, who took these photos after visiting the islet with a group of friends in May, said there were very few households living on the islet and they mainly bred oysters on floating rafts |
 |
| A sandy beach along the cliffs in Beo Co, sheltered from the sea breeze, makes it ideal for camping. |
