Several of islands are hollow with enormous caves. The largest is called Hang Dau Go(Wooden stakes cave).

There are two bigger islands, Tuan Chau and Cat Ba, and a number of beautiful beaches on the smaller islands. Many of islands have acquired their names as a result of interpretation of their unusual shapes. Such names include Voi islet(elephant), Ga Choi islet(fighting cock), Khi islet(monkey), Mai Nha islet(roof), Kissing cocks,…
Other is the abundance of lakes inside the limestone islands. For example, Dau Be island has six enclosed lakes.
