Update: 18/10/2021
(TITC) - According to Lonely Planet, across the globe, thousands of idyllic isles wait to be discovered – some quiet and uninhabited, others busy with snorkelers, hikers and travellers in search of Instagram-worthy sunsets. Among which Cát Bà Island of Vietnam is one of eight islands you won’t want to miss.

In the article, Cat Ba is described as a place perfect for a hike in dense jungle. As the largest of 367 islands, Cát Bà Island is the king of Vietnam’s Cát Bà archipelago, which means, unsurprisingly, that Cát Bà Town is crowded with hotels. To see what this island has to offer, you have to leave civilization behind and get out into its natural landscape

Characterized by a rugged coastline dotted with quiet bays and virgin forests, Cát Bà is particularly wonderful to explore on a motorbike, which you can easily rent in town. Afterward, go for a hike in the dense jungle of Cát Bà National Park, a Unesco World Biosphere Reserve or a boat cruise around the dramatic limestone rock formations of Lan Ha Bay

In additions, the article also introduces 7 other islands including Kaua‘i (in Hawaii), Ilha de Tinharé (Brazil), Ko Raya (Thailand), Isla Holbox (Mexico), Isla Catalinita (Dominican Republic), Waiheke Island (New Zealand), Isla Tortuga (Costa Rica).
