River sights in Koh Kong Conservation Corridor

  1. Koh Kapi

    On the Peam Krasaop Wildlife Sanctuary's west coast, along both banks of a channel, is the Venice-like village of Koh Kapi. Each of the fishers' houses - held aloft by stilts - has a blue or green wooden boat docked outside. Ask around to find a local family willing to prepare a fresh fish or seafood meal.

  2. Ta Op

    Small boats can be taken up into four mangrove-lined streams that are rich in wildlife, including the pileated gibbon, long-tailed macaque and black-shanked douc langur: Ta Op, the largest, on the east coast; Ta Nun in the middle of the south coast; and Ta Nhi and Preak Khsach on the east coast.

  3. Andoung Tuek

    On the western side of the highway bridge over Preak Piphot, this river port can be used as a jumping-off point for a boat trip along the east coast of Botum Sakor National Park and for an excursion upriver to Chi Phat. Andoung Tuek is on NH48 98km from Krong Koh Kong and 191km from Phnom Penh.
