Kampot
|
|
| |
 The pretty
riverine town of
Kampot is just
five kilometers
from the sea and
serves the very
popular seaside
resort of Kep.
Once a
fashionable
haunt of the
French elite, it
was known as La
Perle de la Cote
d' Agathe and
has stunning
offshore islands
and a beautiful
bay, King
Sihanouk owned
one of these
islands and
would often use
it for
entertaining.
This region is
famous for its
production of
durian, the foul
smelling fruit,
and reputedly
has the best
seafood in the
country. |

Kompong Som (Sihanoukville) |
|
| |
Kompong Som,
Cambodia's only
maritime port is
232 kilometers
from Phnompenh
and accessible
via one of the
best
inter-provincial
roads in the
country. Kompong
Som is not only
a seaport but an
area famous for
its
picture-postcard
tropical
beaches.
Situated as it
is on a
headland,
visitors can
choose from a
range of
beaches, several
of which can
often remain
completely
deserted. The
most popular are
Ochatial beach
and Sokha Beach
due their
immediacy to the
town.
Local fishermen
will take
visitors to any
one of the
nearby islands
where the coral,
teeming with
tropical fish,
is perfect for
snorkeling,
diving, and
fishing. There
are many
restaurants
catering to
various national
tastes but its
well worth
trying the
freshly caught
crab, shrimps
and other
seafood the
region has to
offer.
The resort was
established in
1964 and can be
visited all year
round to
appreciate the
warm sands, cool
breezes and
clear blue
skies.

Bokor Hill Station |
|
| |
In keeping with
the colonial
practices of the
time, many of
the French
elite, unwilling
to become
accustomed to
the heat of
Cambodian
summer,
retreated to the
Bokor Hill
Station set in
the Elephant
Mountains. At an
elevation of
just over 1000m
it is famous for
its pleasant
climate, clear
streams and
tranquil
surroundings.
Visitors will be
taken in by the
stunning
panoramas,
forested vistas
and breathtaking
views of the
sea. The best
time to visit is
between November
and May. |
