  1. Phneat Koh Pong Sat Community Fisheries

    At the Phneat Koh Pong Sat Community Fisheries, a community-based fish sanctuary run by monks 8km east of town, you can feed schools of fat, frisky fish from a peaceful riverside pavilion on the grounds of a wat. Monks sell food pellets and dry bread (500r). It makes a delightful excursion by bicycle, moto or car, especially in the late afternoon.
