The essential experience here is spending the night. Visitors can hire a boat, lying inside and let the current take them without thinking; the boat will float in tune with the water in the moonlight in a breezy night.
The lake offers plenty of fresh fish. In the rainy season, the water runs down from the upstream of Dong Nai River, and Tri An Lake supply hits its peak.
The specialty of the lake is lang (Hemibagrus) fish. The fresh and oily lake fish may weight several kilograms. They can be used to serve as lang fish sour soup, crispy fried lang fish, grilled lang fish with salt and chili, or lang fish hotpot.
