Morning fog lifts off the karst columns as the cruise slips between towers of limestone, each islet a small theater of wind and water. Onboard, the sundeck hums with low conversation, the smell of coffee, and the quiet of people watching the bay rearrange itself—islet after islet rising like fingers from the sea.
