About Suoi Da Ban
Suoi Da Ban is a natural stream and waterfall site on Phu Quoc Island in An Giang Province, Vietnam. Located about 6 km northeast of Duong Dong in Cua Duong area, it is known for large flat granite slabs (da ban), small cascades and clear pools surrounded by forest. The site is a popular local picnic and swimming spot, especially during the rainy season when water flow is strongest, offering a tranquil forest setting away from the beaches.
Visitors guide
Visitors can expect a forested natural area centered on a wide, flat granite rock bed with small cascades and shallow pools. The stream flows through secondary forest with large boulders, clear water pools suitable for wading and swimming when water levels allow, and shaded picnic areas. There are simple paths along the rocks and forest, small local food stalls near the entrance, and a quiet, natural environment. Water volume varies seasonally, with stronger flows in the rainy season and low or dry conditions in the dry season.
