Koh Rong must be the new inspiration for movies like The Beach - It is beautiful, secluded, and completely stole my heart.
The only other place where I’ve had the pleasure of walking on such white sand with deeply greenish-blue water was in Hamilton Island, Australia. I have to say, that was a slightly more costly place to get to and stay than Koh Rong happens to be.
Take a look for yourself. This island is truly magical:
Then there’s the even less-visited Rabbit Island (Koh Tonsay), just a 20-minute boat ride away from Kep, Cambodia.
Famous for crab and peppercorns, this area is somewhat less touristy but packs just as much beauty:
Have you ever been to either island? What did you think?

Um I hate my life. This is SO beautiful. I think Alex from Alex in Wanderland went here too.
Would make sense given she’s a diver too!
Beautiful! Reminds me a little of the remote island of Koh Kradan in Thailand.
OOohh I’ll have to add that to my list!
Koh Tonsay was nice, just a few other people on the island. Great way to spend a day. Short, 40 minute, boat ride from Kep
