The coast of Cambodia is a large and small islands: some of them are hidden impenetrable jungle, while others are famous for coves surrounded by white sand and palm trees.
Resorts of Cambodia on the coast (vacation benefits)
Do you want to enjoy beautiful beaches and immerse yourself in a world of romance? Take a closer look at Koh Rong Samlun Island (its harbor is shaped like a heart). Are you a diver? Surely, you will be interested in a vacation on the island of Koh Tan. If you want to become the only inhabitant of some uninhabited island, you should arrange with one of the boatmen to take you there, and then return for you after a couple of days (do not forget to bring drinking water and food supplies).
Cities and resorts of Cambodia on the coast
- Kep: Due to the Civil War, which once broke out in this city, located on the southern coast of Cambodia, there are few surviving attractions. Among them are several colonial villas, a Crab Statue and a monument to an Asian woman. Those who wish can go to the Kep National Park (mangrove and banana groves, snorkeling, fishing), to the palace of King Sihanouk (to visit you need to obtain a special permit), to one of the caves with a small pool (you can swim) and to the pepper plantation. A beach holiday in Kepe is represented by a coastline (sand mixed with small stones), along which you can find picnic areas, food stalls and cafes (you will be offered to taste crab with sauce). And if you want to soak up the white beaches, you can take a boat trip to Rabbit Island (they will ask you to pay $ 20 for a boat, and $ 10 for a bungalow).
- Sihanoukville: here you can see the Church of St. Michael, the temples of Wat Kraom and Wat Leu, try your luck at the “Fortuna Casino”, go to the Kbal Chhai waterfall and the Snake House complex (includes a hotel, a restaurant and a mini-zoo where you can meet crocodiles, various types of snakes, including poisonous, and exotic birds), get fruits and seafood, jewelry, silk products, inexpensive clothes and shoes at the City Market, relax on the beaches of Ochheuteal Beach (dotted with restaurants and bars, there are paid sun loungers, palm leaf umbrellas), Sokha Beach (those who wish can visit the Golden Sea Casino at the Sokha Beach Resort) and Serendipity Beach (there are tents where you can buy local food and drinks, and there are bars nearby where in the evening time you can take part in entertainment activities).
Among tourists, the coast of Cambodia is not in such demand as, for example, Thai or Vietnamese, but this is all because not everyone knows that it is famous for its white sandy beaches washed by the waters of the Gulf of Thailand.
