Type of destination: Beach
Ideal visit duration: 2-3 hours
Kep Beach is a serene stretch of coast in the small town of Kep, located in the Kep Province of Cambodia along the nation's southern coastline. Known for its relaxed atmosphere, Kep Beach is set against a backdrop of lush hills and dense tropical vegetation. The beach is relatively small, spanning just over half a kilometre, but it is renowned for its fine white sands and tranquil clear waters, which offer a refreshing escape from Cambodia's tropical heat. Kep itself has a rich history, once a vibrant resort town for the French colonial elite, it still houses many remnants of its luxurious past with dilapidated mansions and villas dotting the landscape, providing a sense of its former glory. Today, Kep Beach attracts both locals and tourists seeking a peaceful beach experience. Visitors can indulge in fresh seafood, especially crab, which is a regional specialty. Besides relaxing by the sea, tourists may explore nearby natural attractions, including Kep National Park. The area is also famous for its stunning sunsets, which paint the sky in vibrant shades as the day draws to a close.
