Latest reviews on Koh Kong's beaches

Fishing Beach​
8 Renata Zephyr

The beach is an idyllic spot to unwind and recharge your batteries either before or after visiting the bustling municipal town of Koh Kong. You can indulge in some delectable food and refreshing drinks while soaking up the sun and taking in the stunning scenery. There are also guesthouses and camping sites in close proximity to the beach. However, be prepared for a bustling atmosphere as this popular spot is usually teeming with visitors. One area that could use some improvement is the restroom facilities and the availability of showers after a dip in the sea.

Bakhlong Beach

The Long Beach was a fun spot for my kids to jump the waves, but unfortunately, the water was not very clean and had a brownish tint, making it less than ideal for swimming. Despite this, I still enjoyed a leisurely stroll along the beach.

Kos kong Krav Beach

This is the most stunning beach I have ever seen.

Nomads Land
10 Samantha Anderson

This paradise island has everything you could want! Kim and Scott are amazing hosts who are both friendly and helpful, providing great tips for exploring other parts of Cambodia. The food is fantastic, a delicious mix of Cambodian and western cuisine made with fresh ingredients from the nearby market. The breakfast pancakes are particularly noteworthy! We really enjoyed the communal area where guests could socialize instead of being glued to their phones. There are plenty of hammocks for relaxing, and the snorkeling is some of the best we've experienced in Asia. Kayaks and paddle boards are also available for use, and the jungle walks to the other side of the island offer stunning sunset views. The bungalows are beautiful and waking up to the sound of the ocean and breathtaking sunrises was a highlight of our stay. We highly recommend staying here - it was the best part of our time in Asia.

Koh Sdach beach
10 Shayla B

The pictures accurately depict this fantastic resort on Koh Sdach, which is relatively new. The room design was unique and provided a high level of comfort, surpassing the experience of staying in a concrete room on the beach. The bed was comfortable and the room had all the necessary amenities, including powerful air conditioning, multiple outlets, and robes. The staff were exceptional, displaying kindness and warm hospitality. The restaurant served delicious food, and the staff were accommodating to my preferences and offered smaller portion sizes, which I appreciated. Knowing that there wasn't much on the island, I specifically sought a place where I could completely relax and unwind, and this resort provided the perfect setting for that. I would recommend taking a boat to Coral island for some snorkeling, and there are also excellent diving opportunities around the nearby islands.

Fifth Beach
8 Rithy Soth

The locals often refer to this beach as the fourth beach, since the actual fourth beach marked on the map is quite short. However, the villagers don't consider it a proper beach. To avoid any confusion, it is advisable for tourists to inquire about which beach is suitable for camping. The beach itself is truly stunning, with mountain streams cascading into the sea and the sea water flowing back into the streams. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking. There is a fisherman's house nearby that provides bathroom facilities and fresh water for bathing. The fisherman also sells coconuts, although he doesn't offer pure water or other beverages. During the evening, you can take a leisurely stroll to catch crabs for cooking. It is recommended to add some fresh water for cooking or washing vegetables and meat, as the well water, although pleasant for bathing, has a slight odor.

There are few offers for accommodation in the beach area, so finding a suitable place to stay can be a problem. You can use the map search to get more information about this.

The hottest month of the region is May - air temperature during this time warms up to 30.5°C and water up to 31.4°C. The coldest month is January - air temperature drops to 27.8°C and water to 28.5°C. Air and water temperature allows you to relax comfortably in the region all year round, which is enjoyed by tourists and locals.
