Cat Ba Town is the main settlement on the island with around 8, 000 inhabitants or on boats moored in Cai Beo bay, about 2km away from the town itself. It features 3 beaches and a parade of restaurants and hotels along the seafront. Cat Ba is an island of approximately 140 km2 in Ha Long Bay, Northern Vietnam. It is commonly used as an overnight hotel stop on tours to Ha Long Bay run by travel agents from Hanoi. Cat Ba is the largest island in the Bay and approximately half of its area is covered by a National Park. The Park covers both land and marine areas and has a high biodiversity, although it is at risk from too rapid an increase in tourism. The island is a national park of Vietnam and was recognized by UNESCO in December 2004 as a Biosphere reserve of the world.
