1) Koh Rong: the best known and busiest
Only an hour by boat from Sihanoukville, Koh Rong is the biggest and most famous of the Cambodian islands. It is ideal for those seeking both relaxation and a lively atmosphere, with its miles of pristine beaches and seabed rich in underwater life. Don't miss Long Set Beach and the magical spectacle of phosphorescent plankton at night.
2) Koh Rong Sanloem: for greater tranquillity
Nicknamed Koh Rong's little sister, Koh Rong Sanloem is the ideal destination for travellers looking for some calm for a last moment of relaxation at Cambodge. No crowds, no roads, just the sea, fine sand and the good life. Don't miss the magnificent Saracen Bay and Sunset Beach for unforgettable sunsets.
3) Koh Krabey: eco-responsible luxury
Just a few kilometres from the coast, Koh Krabey is home to a single hotel: The Six Senses Krabey Island, an environmentally friendly luxury resort. If you're looking for an upmarket stay, privacy or a break in the heart of nature, this island is ideal. Enjoy treatments at the spa and admire the spectacular views over the Gulf of Thailand.
4) Koh Russey: discreet chic
Koh Russey is an island that combines elegance and nature. Preserved and peaceful, it offers golden sandy beaches, lush vegetation and an intimate atmosphere. The accommodation on offer is deliberately limited, concentrating on a few top-of-the-range establishments, guaranteeing rare tranquillity and exclusivity.
5) Koh Tonsay (Rabbit Island): the charming local island
Located opposite Kep, Koh Tonsay, also known as Rabbit Island, preserves an authentic local atmosphere. This island is ideal for a day trip or short break, allowing you to experience life at the local pace. Don't miss the chance to enjoy a fresh seafood lunch with your feet in the sand.
From luxury resorts to fishing huts, the islands of Cambodia offers a range of unique experiences. Whether you're looking for discreet refinement, unspoilt nature or authentic immersion in local life, these five islands invite you to suspend time and revel in the tranquillity of the Gulf of Thailand.
