Koh Rong

Koh Rong
Koh Rong (Rong Island) is one of the most gorgeous
and loveliest islands in the Cambodia Bay which is
located about 25 kilometers off the coast of Sihanouk
Ville province. Rong Island, with its white sandy
beaches and turquoise water, is a dreamy tropical
paradise rarely seen on earth that has been called the
‘Star of the Islands’ due to its natural diversities. On
its southwestern side, the beach stretches for nearly
five kilometers of virgin white sand, fringed with
palm trees and dazzling turquoise water. The island's
southernmost cove hosts a beach locally called ‘Long
Set Beach’ after a farmer who lives there growing
coconuts, mangoes and cashews. Snorkelers can
see schools of colorful rabbit fish, sergeant fish, and
parrot fish. There are seven bays on the island which
are enough to keep even the most active visitors busy
with diving, snorkeling, mountain biking, trekking,
kayaking and motorbike trekking, as well as plenty
of sand, sun, and sea for those with more relaxed
tastes. The increased number of tourists has led to
an accelerating increase in the number of bungalows
built, where tourists can truly enjoy living with nature.
