Is it worth experiencing for tourists visiting Phu Quoc? Let’s follow Rooty Trip and explore Da Ban Stream Phu Quoc in this article!

1. Introduction to Da Ban Stream Phu Quoc

Da Ban Stream Phu Quoc

Da Ban Stream originates from the peak of Ham Ninh Mountain. It is part of the longest and highest mountain range among the 99 mountains stretching from north to south of Phu Quoc Island. Da Ban Stream features many pristine landscapes such as large rocks, small waterfalls, and clear water ponds. The area is surrounded by a primary forest with many ancient trees and rich vegetation, creating a fresh and cool atmosphere for the stream.

However,

As of March 25, 2024, according to information from Rooty Trip, Da Ban Stream is temporarily closed due to the dry season. This is also the time for the tourist area to renovate and clean up. For detailed information about when the stream will reopen, please check Rooty Trip’s Facebook Fanpage for updates!

1.1 Where is Da Ban Stream Phu Quoc located?

Da Ban Stream is located in Ben Tram Hamlet, Cua Duong Commune, Phu Quoc City, Kien Giang Province, about 10 km from Duong Dong Town center. This is one of the ideal eco-tourism spots in Phu Quoc, perfect for nature lovers who want to immerse themselves in a fresh, cool atmosphere and enjoy a relaxing, peaceful experience, especially to wash off the sea salt after a day of enjoying the beach.

1.2 What is the meaning of the name Da Ban Stream?

The name “Da Ban” comes from the terrain of the area. There are many large rocks lying side by side. Over time, the rushing water gradually wore down the surfaces of these rocks, making them as flat as a table. In addition, there is a legend that says this stream is where the fairies used to bathe, which is how it got its name. Although the fairies have no connection to Da Ban, which is somewhat confusing, it doesn’t really matter in the end.

2. When is the best time to visit Da Ban Stream?

May to November is a beautiful time to visit Da Ban stream

The best time to fully enjoy the beauty of Da Ban Stream is from May to November. Specifically, from June to September, Da Ban Stream has the most majestic and powerful flow, as there is a large amount of water, making it ideal for a refreshing swim. During this time, the stream will become crystal clear, and the flowing water will create a soothing sound, captivating visitors with the mystical beauty of Da Ban Stream Phu Quoc.

However, you should be cautious if visiting during this period because the path can be very slippery, with a lot of moss, making it easy to slip and fall. Especially when passing areas with dense forest, waterfalls, and pristine scenery, you may be tempted to jump in and swim right away without warming up. This could lead to catching a cold, which would affect your health, so please take extra care.

3. How to get to Da Ban Stream Phu Quoc?

How to get to Da Ban Stream Phu Quoc

To reach Da Ban Stream from the town, you need to travel along Cach Mang Thang 8 Street, turn left onto Nguyen Trung Truc Street, and follow the signs for another 4 km. However, when you reach the entrance to the Da Ban Stream tourist area, you will need to walk across a suspension bridge to enter, as this part of the road is not accessible by vehicle.

If you don’t want to rent a car, you can use the bus service to save costs, with a fare of only 30,000 VND per person. The bus is not only safe but also quickly takes you to the tourist area.

If you’re coming from Duong Dong Town, you can choose from several ways to get there:

  • Option 1

You can take a public bus from the center of Duong Dong to the Cua Duong Commune stop. The bus route is convenient and takes you directly to the Da Ban Stream tourist area, so the journey won’t take too long. The fare for this bus ride is 30,000 VND per trip.

  • Option 2

For motorbike travel, you can head east on Cach Mang Thang 8 Street until the road ends, then turn left onto Nguyen Trung Truc Street and go about 3 km, following the signs. After that, turn right onto a dirt path and continue for another 4 km to reach Da Ban Stream. Once you arrive, you will need to park your motorbike and walk across a suspension bridge for about 15 minutes to reach Da Ban Stream.

In addition to the two ways mentioned above, you can also take a taxi or rent a motorbike by the day for more convenience during your trip. The price ranges from 100,000 to 160,000 VND per day per vehicle, which is very affordable and helps save costs for your trip.
