Koh Kong Island
កោះកុង
Cambodia's largest island, with seven uninhabited white-sand beaches stretching along its west coast. Reachable only by boat, it remains wild and tranquil.
Koh Kong Island is Cambodia's largest island. It is covered in dense rainforest and almost entirely undeveloped. Its west coast has several stretches of fine white sand and clear water, which locals number Beach 1 through Beach 7. Most visitors join a day trip from Koh Kong town. A boat heads down the river and out to sea for about 1 to 1.5 hours, passing mangroves and fishing villages on the way. On the island you can swim, snorkel, and eat barbecued seafood, and some tours include overnight tent stays. A day trip costs about USD 25 to 35 per person. There are no shops on the island, so bring plenty of drinking water and sun protection.
