We only took the hydrofoil to the island. It left early in the morning. We had prearranged transport from Hanoi via Ninh Binh to Haiphong. You might have luck at lonelyplanet.com Thorn Tree forums.

Hi, could you tell me the time table for your Hydrofoil from Cat Ba Island to Hai Phonh, and would you know how we would get to the airport from where the ferry lands.regards
