Da Ban water fall:
exploring Phu Quoc island - the largest island in Vietnam.
Located about 6kms east of Duong Dong Town, this is a pleasant place for a swim, to cool down in the numerous rock pools and enjoy the surrounding vegetation, though we recommend you bring some mosquito repellent if you are staying around for a picnic. Suoi Da Ban is named after the many table like rock formations that make up what is actually a white water stream tumbling across large and interesting granite boulders.
To find Suoi Da Ban, take the northerly road from Duong Dong toward Bai Thom or Ganh Dau and look out for signs (turning right) to Suoi Da Ban that can be seen after about 1 or 2 kms from Duong Dong Town. Admission to the stream is 2,000VND, motorbike 2,000 VND
- Da Tranh water fall.
Located about 7kms southeast of Duong Dong Town, after a short 15 minute stroll along the shaded forest path you reach what is the islands largest string of waterfalls and rock pools, also a good place for a swim when the falls are flowing, because the stream tends to dry up before the rainy season arrives each year. The entrance to Suoi Tranh contains large concrete status, fake waterfall and large wood carved signed, though the walk to the actual waterfall is worthwhile, even to just experience the dense vegetation.
To find Suoi Tranh, take the road heading east from Duong Dong for about 7kms toward Ham Ninh Village and look out for a large wood carved sign and concrete status in what could be mistaken for an unfinished inland resort. Travel inside to the small kiosk and walk from there. Admission to the stream is 1000d and motorbike is 1000d, however this is not always enforced or collected.

So I am trying to answer some questions that people usually ask about Phu Quoc:
How to get to Phu Quoc, Suoi Tranh
- If you are from HCMC, you can take a direct flight to Phu Quoc; Or you can take a bus (Mai Linh or Phuong Tranh, both of them are good) to get to Rach Gia and buy a ticket to get to Phu Quoc. I hightly recommend that when you get to Rach Gia bus stop, you should wait for another transport car to take you to the ferry, Do not take any Xe Om from Rach Gia bus stop. If you take a Xe Om just remember that you should not pay higher than 20VNĐ to get to the PhuQuoc's ferry.
- You should book the ferry tickets and Hotel in advance; if not, you may not find any places to stay when It's on Vietnam's holiday.
- The price to hire a motorbike usually from 100-150VNĐ
Any more questions please comment right following or send me an email. Hope you have a nice trip.
