Kep Province Overview
Development Goals
Kep Province is shaping a unique tourism identity by blending coastal charm with wellness, eco-experiences, and cultural authenticity. Through upgraded infrastructure, expanded tourist routes, and the development of high-end tourism offerings, the province is set to become a standout destination for immersive, full-region tourism anchored in sustainability and lifestyle appeal. Its strategic location near Vietnam and strong integration into southern coastal tourism corridors also provide investors with cross-border market access and regional connectivity, enhancing long-term growth potential.
Priority Industries
Kep Province is transforming into a high-end coastal destination, leveraging its stunning coastline, national park, and mild climate to develop luxury wellness resorts, coastal recreation, and agri-tourism. In partnership with Kampot, it is creating a southern tourism corridor linked to nearby islands. Kep also offers unique value in boutique agriculture, producing premium pepper, sea salt, seafood, and tropical fruits. With improving infrastructure and access to processing hubs, Kep is ideal for investors seeking sustainable, experience-driven growth in tourism and agri-value chains.
Key Priority Projects
Kep’s 11 priority projects promote inclusive and sustainable coastal growth. A new Skills and Learning Center will strengthen local capacity in tourism, agriculture, and entrepreneurship, focusing on youth and women. A Green Coastal Corridor will restore mangroves, protect biodiversity and support eco-tourism. Together, these projects build human capital, boost climate resilience, and position Kep as a model for low-impact, community-led development.
Incentive and Scheme
As part of the Coastal Master Plan, the Kep investment is eligible for incentives under the Law on Investment of the Kingdom of Cambodia, aimed at encouraging private sector participation and fostering sustainable economic growth in the region.
