(Ha Long Bay, Vietnam, June 14, 2026) Protecting one of the world's natural wonders, Vietnamese cruise operator Bhaya Cruises completed its annual Clean the Bay 2026: Green Promise For the Bay We Love initiative in Ha Long Bay, Vietnam.

Now in its 9th year, the campaign brought together 95 volunteers, travel industry partners & local stakeholders in a collective effort to safeguard the UNESCO World Heritage-listed destination.

The results were significant. In just a 2km stretch of the bay, participants collected 617 kilograms of waste, including 223kg of plastic, 190kg of discarded fishing nets, 172kg of polystyrene & 32kg of other debris.

Hosted aboard Au Co Cruise, the initiative featured kayaking & tender boat clean-ups, waste sorting, environmental impact recording & sustainability activities. Since launching in 2017, Clean the Bay has become a powerful example of how tourism operators can drive positive environmental change while inspiring travellers to play a role in protecting fragile marine ecosystems.
