Ride a bike 3km from Son Trach to this riverside spot for cold beers, robust gin and tonics, and tasty Vietnamese snacks. Lying in a hammock, kayaking on the river, or chilling with the bar's resident water buffalo are all added attractions at this great place for a sundowner drink. The crater here was the result of a huge 2000lb US bomb targeting a nearby fuel depot.
