Koh Kong Tourism
Koh Kong Province is uniquely positioned to emerge as a premier eco-tourism and leisure destination in Cambodia. Rich in natural diversity, the province is home to extensive mangrove forests, serene rivers, cascading waterfalls, verdant mountains, untouched islands, marine parks and a long stretch of pristine coastline. These resources create the foundation for a wide range of tourism experiences and investment opportunities from adventure and nature tourism to wellness, relaxation and cultural exploration.
With growing regional interest in sustainable and experience-driven travel, Koh Kong has a golden opportunity to diversify its tourism offerings and develop high-value, low-impact products that appeal to both regional and international markets. By leveraging its environmental assets and strengthening supporting infrastructure, the province can significantly enhance its role in Cambodia’s tourism development strategy while contributing to the broader goal of increasing the appeal and competitiveness of the country's southwestern corridor.
Offering breathtaking natural landscapes and rich biodiversity, its attractions include the Cardamom Mountains, Tatai Waterfall, and Peam Krasop Wildlife Sanctuary.

It’s an ideal visit and/or investment destination for nature lovers seeking sustainable adventures and authentic experiences.
