Koh Rong Samloem: Day Trip from Phnom Penh - Hike & Snorkel

At 5:30am your private driver will collect you from your accommodation for the 3 hour journey to Cambodia's south. In Sihanoukville, you will have the chance to stop for snacks before boarding your speed ferry to Koh Rong Samloem. In M'Pai Bay, your tour guide will be waiting for you on the pier when you arrive to begin your island experience. 

Your island day will begin with a tea or coffee right on the beach where you can take in the coastal views and breathe in the fresh ocean air for a few minutes. When you're ready, it is time to set off on you 90 minute jungle walk from M'Pai Bay to the neighbouring Clearwater Bay. Along the way you might be lucky enough to spot monkeys or a vaierty of birds and other stunning jungle life. Arriving at Clearwater Bay, you can lunch straight into the water for a swim in the crystal clear ocean that this bay was named after. 

Your longtail boat will arrive shortly after to deliver your lunch which you can enjoy on the beach while watching the waves.

After lunch, you will board your boat to make the 15 minute trip to one of our favourite snorkelling spots. At Coral Cove you will see a variety of soft and hard corals in an array of magical colours. There are schools of pelagic fish to enjoy floating with and your guide will point out anything else of interest in the water too. You will return to M'Pai Bay where you can shower and change before your speed ferry departs at 4:45pm back to the mainland. 

Arriving in Sihanoukville at 5:30pm, you will be met again by your private driver to make the 3 hour journey back to Phnom Penh, returning to your hotel at approximately 8:30pm.
