Afortable stay. Super relaxing.
Very nice Island
Nice small island to stay a few days, reading a book. Bungalows start at US 5, clear water and deckchairs along the beach.
Rubbish island! Plastic everywhere. Don't being your swimming clothes because you DEDICATEDLY DON'T WANT TO SWIM HERE
A great island for the day. Take a walk around the island takes S few hours. Path not clear in places but good fun. It is a bit of a party island with lots of sunburnt bodies but for a day trip it is great. Food reasonably priced. Boats really well organised. A lot of rubbish around the edges of the island the only negative.
Don't spread the word.. this is a little paradise. Very simple and perfect to relax. Enjoy a barbecue on the beach, swim and chill-out.
Definitely worth going if staying in Kep.
If you are planning to go to Cambodia & thinking where to spend time on the beach probably Koh rong island & Sianoukville are the better options
I live here from December until April.
It is just fantastic. Quiet, good food, lovely people and delicious cocktails.
A magic place with energetic fibes.
Not really but yes, it is the best beach in Kep (due to nothing there).
I've expected quiet island with clean beaches and place to snorkel. Nothing of it. The only usable beach is where you land by boat. This one is nice sandy beach and good for swimming in the sea. There is nothing there for snorkeling.
Other beaches (counterclockwise from main where you land):
- "Small" or "Stone" beach: well, fishermen are occupying this one and heavy diggers and trucks are leveling ground for construction site,
- nice sandy beach full of trash as usually in Cambodia and heavy diggers and trucks are leveling ground for construction site,
- "Coral" beach: it's algae farm now.
Next is stony, shallow and mangrove seashore with humps of muddy dead algae.
Be warned: I've not gone far on the remote beaches but have seen many dead sea urchin shells.
Walk around the island: skip it. Unless you are true dedicated nature lover Nothing there and path is not maintained and overgrown in few parts. It's leading partially through bushes & mangroves (shoes and long trousers recommended) and through wet smelly humps (like mud) of rotting algae on "Coral Beach" (algae farm bay - you have to stump upon coral to find it under the water if there is any).
I wish I know it before so I just spend a chill out day on beach where boats are landing.
