Novotel Phu Quoc Resort - Family & Business trip hotel - The Tranh Stream

The Tranh Stream, or Suoi Tranh as the locals call it, is actually the most impressive waterfall on beautiful Phu Quoc Island. Take a taxi from Novotel Phu Quoc Resort, and head east past the airport to pick up the TL46 road, then head north for 2km. You cannot miss the entrance, which is a large, ivy-covered gateway. From the motorbike park a winding footpath takes you to the waterfall. This is a fun place to visit on a family vacation, as the waterfall is very picturesque.

It is possible to ride a motorbike to the falls themselves, but you’ll need to have decent biking skills. The road is rutted and winding and has some large potholes. However, the 15-minute walk to the Tranh Stream is along a very pleasant cobbled path that meanders through a forested area.

It is advisable to get here early, as with many popular tourist spots in Vietnam, once the organised tour parties start to show up, it can get very busy. This is also the cooler part of the day.
