Song Ray, a spectacular waterfall in Son Duc Commune, Son Binh District, Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province, is a must-see destination for visitors to the area, especially those loving to conquer slippery rocks.


Song Ray Waterfall or also known as Hoa Binh (peace) waterfall in Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province appeals to travelers for its wild nature and limpid water

From HCM City tourists should head to Ba Ria Town, and then travel around 25 kilometers to Ngai Giao town, about 10 kilometers to Son Binh District and two more kilometers to the waterfall.

It’s worth a 120-kilometer journey to visit Song Ray as it has many whirlpools stretching around one kilometer with three big falls flowing into one mainstream.

Tourists can enjoy swimming or soaking their weary feet into the cool water or find a shade to enjoy a light lunch or some snack with friends and family while admiring sparkling water under the sunlight. It is off the beaten track, so visitors there are guaranteed a quiet and immense space to discover.

Tourists are advised to use waterproof or plastic sandals to move easily on some rugged and slippery rocks and be careful with your stuffs because you might drop them into the water and whirlpools will sweep them away in a second. And remember to apply sun cream to protect you from the scorching sunlight. And this is not a place recommended for children.

After visiting the waterfall travelers can choose to discover other tourist attractions in Ba Ria-Vung Tau, including Ho Coc which boasts wild nature and beaches or Binh Chau hot spring to get a mineral spring water therapy that’s good for your health and body.

Let’s pack your luggage and treat yourself a weekend escape at Song Ray Waterfall.
