- I’m able to show you around the island of Koh Rong in the south of Cambodia. After a few days on the island, I found out that Koh Rong is one of the, if not THE most beautiful island in South East Asia. I’m talking about the whitest beaches and the island vibes. It is just one of a kind. Let me take you on a full tour of the island. After seeing this video you have a pretty good idea of what the island has to offer.
My favorite part of the island is the south coast as it’s more lively, and the West coast as it has the whitest beaches.

Cambodia is truly energetic country ❤ Send love from S.Korea 🇰🇷❤️🇰🇭
Love received 🥰❤️ thank you!
thank you love u❤
Cambodian love Korea too 🙏🇰🇭🫶🇰🇷🫶💐👏🏻👏🏼👏🏽👏🏾👏🏿
Umm you are Khmer not South Korean your Profile and follows says Otherwise! Idk why you have to Fake being from South Korea!
@@Iceyfire12 you are so crazy of what you say. I never thought of racism of anyone. I just express my point of view to the country I wish to visit. And who are you dare to say me bad ? Crazy person you are.
There is no need development there. It is already good. Most people do not want it to look like a city but a serene real island life.
I know there are many beautiful beaches around the world, however the beaches in Koh Rong (Rong Island) is surely among the most beautiful beaches with white sand.
My country 🇰🇭
That’s it mate🏆
Sihanouk ville before the Chinese is just the same vibe as the island. my mum has a restaurant on independent beach, we didn't make lots of money from westerners but we were happy to serve.
Yes Sihanouk ville Before 2015 is just like the island vipe. I hop Koh will not be come like Sihabouk ville in the next 10 years.
My first time traveling there was in 1998. I was on the way to Phnom Penh via Sihanoukville from Trat/Hat Lek. The water was bathtub clear, the sand was white and the foliage was deep green. There was little more than a fishing village at the time.
Nice! Things has changed a bit :) it’s still a great place to be I reckon 😃 thanks for watching 🏆
Koh Rong is the most beautiful white sand beach. We been there in January 2024. We loved it, definitely will go back again. Highly recommended, words can’t describe and do it’s justice. Need to be there in person to experience it.
Aw haha yeah that’s true. Even a video can’t either. Thanks for watching
Koh Rong never can go wrong! Great Island, mutch better than Texel ;)
Haha you can’t Koh Rong mate :p haha very different I’d say 🤪 Texel on a nice summer day is very nice too! Groetjes!
Thank you Chai for sharing the extraordinary tour of that paradise of Koh Rong island. Wonderful destination in Cambodia.👍
Ey, my pleasure mate 😃 it’s truly a beautiful island. Hopefully they’re able to keeping in clean from rubbish in the future.
Chai, you are really nailing this walk about activity man., intermingled with the odd chat with locals and tourists alike and a bit of drone activity. This video is unrushed too and a very comfortable watch over 34 minutes. Throw in plenty of relevant information via sub titles which is a great idea and overall I guess not too much editing involved. I absolutely loved this one. Good on you champ. Fantastic promotion for the island. Wayne is currently in KL maybe he watches this and makes a beeline for Cambodia 🍻🤩
Cheers Steven! Haha yeah I’ve noticed he’s there! Good on him. I hope he loves is there🤩 🍻

ทะเลสวยมากครับ
การนวดแผนไทยเชิงบวกทุกครั้งทำให้ฉันมีความสุขมาก😊
I been to that island many many years ago that time only local people and a few foreigners. Give my suggestion to whom ever in charge of the developing the island. Build a water airport. Have plane lands on water it give an island vibe.
Royal Group will also have seaplane for this island
@@vannakkh964 consider having a wall out in the sea that will protect all the Khmer islands from high ocean wave. Where I live we have ocean wall and we also have an island. The island here is very expensive.
@@vannakkh964 okay forget about the sea wall it probably will cost too much . The sea wind is good to make electricity by install many big Wind Turbines. Wind turbines are green energy and can also attract visitors as well producing electricities.
I’ve been there lately. The beaches were really good, the sand is white, and the water is transparent and clear. I really loved that place
New subscriber, thanks for sharing your Koh Rong adventure. From Washington USA…
Welcome to this channel 😁 good to know Washington USA is watching 🫡 I hope to show you more beautiful sports in SEA :)
@@Chai_Travel looking forward to them👍👍👍
wow! straight out from chai, Kosh Rong are the most beautiful beaches in southeast Asia.
Ow yes! No lies about that 😍
Thanks brother you are the best ❤️ Cambodia
The sand is amazing😍 what’s a beautiful white beach and clear water ❤️❤️
Welcome to beautiful Koh rong of Cambodia🇰🇭.
Koh Rong is very beautiful and so understated. Thank you for the tour, Chai!😅
It really is! Thanks for watching 🙂
I've been to Koh Rong a few times in the past 10 years. It's changed so much, and the change is gonna supercharge once that airport is finished.
Hopefully it remains its original beauty:)
Thanks from Cambodia 🇰🇭🇰🇭❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏
I plan to go Koh Rong next month
Nice! You’d love it 😍
January - April best season Trip island in Cambodia because now Raining Season 🙏🙏🙏
Atta boy! Wearing a hat finally. Thank goodness KR is still under developed. Thank you so much for your beautiful exposure for this beautiful young developing country that desperately needs tourism. Well done my man. Look up Shinta Mani and Tatai area. Trust me.
Haha thanks! I feel the positive energy in your words! I’ll have a look now! Thanks for the tip mate 😃
I love Koh Rung a lot, it's a beautiful island that make me feel peace and relax 😍
Thanks for your video, from🇰🇭
Thank you ! we are welcome !
beautiful beach
Interesting episode chai ❤ , love to see you hanging around in so many different places 🇰🇭😍 🇰🇭 ❤ beautiful koh rong island 🏝️
Thanks mate. It was a great stay in paradise 😍 have a great day
Wow and Wow , surely the best complete video to Koh Rong ever - Great work Mr Chai ✔️😎✌️👍👌👋🤩
Aaaah haha you’re great! Thanks champ and hopefully more people think this way 😜 have a great one 😊
I love this island. i stayed there in January it was amazing
Koh kong krav island(the third beach) and koh sdach, the beach quite beautiful beach and white sand as well. Now they are still develop it. Hopefully next trip u can visit it😊
I’m honor to be Kun Khmer our native land ! These gems spot are very crowdy during the weekend and Holydays events . Have fun Chai! Prayerfully this spot will remain the same left by our ancestors 😅🌺🌺🇰🇭🇰🇭🇰🇭🥰
Thanks for watching 🙏🏆 ❤️
@@Chai_Travel
Your very welcome 🙏🌺🇰🇭💜
I've been to Koh Rong Samloem twice . It's the " sister island", the one less developed ( at least til a few years ago!)and smaller one. It was a really stunning, relaxing and peaceful island! We really loved it so much. Everything you need is just a couple of steps away.
Cambodia is so underestimated, which, actually,is better for us tourists. Less crowd means less spoiled and more authentic! Thinking, thanxs to your video of going back..again😅
Nice! Yeah Samloem is still less developed though there is a ferry now and I’m sure there will be more development in the future:) aw thank YOU for watching 😊
Can see some issues with it becoming a fully blown tourist place in a short period of time hence why the airport is progressing slowly and such. Getting there requires some effort (as you probably know). Then if the airport opened it would probably be domestic flights coming in initially (I remember when they opened the airport in Koh Samui Thailand over 20 years ago and it was the same thing). There are alot of competing places like it, which are a bit more developed and more interesting for high paying international tourists (Phu Quoc in Vietnam comes to mind). So I suspect the money to pay for the airport will come along as the island develops and they can see some return on the money in a shorter period of time. But yes, beautiful beaches and a great vibe.
Was lucky enough to be on Koh Samui in ’80 as a teenager, so if anyone is considering a visit to Koh Rong ya better hurry! Cheers
I don't know Lok Lak is from Vietnam. It would be nice to know how long it's been in Vietnam.
Very beautiful beach and also white sand
Beautiful beaches. Paradise. Come on people don't pollute the environment. Dispose garbage in receptacles.
Love your video! Keep it coming
Hello Chai , from Cambodian.
Haha hello 🤗
Wow beautiful beach
warm welcome to CAMBODIA 🇰🇭🎉 thank you for your sharing
Thank you
Absolut Paradies , beautiful Koh Rong 🌴🌴🌴❤
Wow ! beautiful my deam❤❤❤❤❤
nice video , nice place thank you for sharing paradise
Hey champ! Thanks for this great video. My best island yet is Koh Chang. But i'm definitely gonna give Koh Rong a chance
Ey champ! Thanks! Aw yeah Koh Chang is beautiful too 😍 Koh Rong is very different. I hope you make it out here beautiful the airport is built as it will change the island drastically:) 🏆
Thanks so much man
I can tell you how many Cambodian can go around the island like you…. Just a few… including me man
You are amazing man thanks for this video. Incredible 🙏
Haha that’s so nice of you! Thanks, you sound like amazing person yourself 😃
Thank you so muchs ❤ Cambodia beautiful ❤
Thank you too for watching 😊
Thank you for sharing the most beautiful beach, Love from Cambodia ❤
Wow! This is surely one of the most beautiful islands I've seen! ❤
I think all beaches should be public. I do like that you found an empty beach.
Many empty beaches on this island:) hopefully that stay this way 😊
Thank for share this beautiful video. I would love to visit this island in 2025. Keep up the great work!
Thanks :) I’m trying. Hopefully you make it over next year 🤩
Good place chai
Thank for coming to Cambodia Chai travel ❤
Thank you for watching
Growing up in Cambodia, I didn't appreciate how nice our beaches are until I visited beaches overseas.
Wait to see your next video about kohrong
😂 this was the video I made about Koh Rong
@@Chai_Travel so it's the last video about kong rong
@countryview9899 that’s correct
@@Chai_Travel where is your next video chai ? always waiting your video posting 😅
Haha thanks! It’s still on the island but it’s not about the island :) it has published just now
Love you from Cambodia 🇰🇭
this is very beautiful place！As a Japanese, I would like you to come to Okinawa because it is also very beautiful!
I’d love to go there one day. I’m only making content in South East Asia but maybe we can go there on holiday 😍
Welcome to Cambodia
I was there 8 years ago. The island has changed quite a bit, but I hope it’ll continue to develop in harmony with nature and maintain its peacefulness as I experiences before.
Thanks Chai for ur video
I hope so too! Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts 🤗
Love your video ❤ Cambodian love you
Thank you
Thanks for visit Cambodia
But January _ April best season for Trip Island in Cambodia
We went there with our 2 little toddlers 6 years ago. It was absolutely breathtaking!! We went in the water for a good 150 yards out to sea and my toddlers can still stand up to their waist areas. The water temperature was heavenly like bath water…we were so spoiled, compared to California ocean temperatures and Lake Tahoe water temperatures 🥶. Good to know it still looks about the same. We plan to return soon for another week stay like last time. Beautiful hidden paradise!! ❤❤❤
I would recommend another island called Koh Rong Somlem, if you like being in the peaceful and quiet place there are two beaches there: the first one is Sunset beach and another is Lazy beach. I was staying at KAMAKU Bungalows. The sunset view is amazing.

There one more beach you not yet visit. Pagoda Beach very nice and white one comparable to Long Beach on the island.
Next time! :) Thanks for the tip
Great vlog. What Camera and mic are you using please?
Thanks 😊 I’m using an iPhone 13Pro with a DJI OM4. The Microphone is a Blink 500 pro :)
@@Chai_Travel thanks for the update 👍
❤❤❤
is long beach a private beach or local for swimming? This Beach is didńt known yet. The water and the color looks great perfect for a swim.
Now i have a Plan to come back to Koh Rong
Good one you Saskia. Most of Long Beach is not private at this very moment 😍
Very beautiful… usually TH-camrs prefer Kih Rong Ssleam. They show trash and dirty water. Thanks, it was not on list to visit. Now, I will try to visit soon.
Nice one 🙂 you won’t regret going to either one of those. Cheers
Cambodia love u
I love Cambodia 😊
This has the vibes of what Otres beach was like. Are you going to checkout Koh Ring Samloen?
That’s it 😎 it’s still exists. Not on this trip :) but I’d love to go back later this year or next year
If you want to see White Wide Beaches go to Australia. We have 10,000 beaches. 😆
Esperance one of the best 😍
Esperance one of the best 😍
I want to travel with you. Lol
You’ve already subscribed right? So you’re already doing it 😜
❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Chai, how are you ? I have to invite you for meal on my next trip. Have a nice time
I’m great thank you. That’s very nice of you 😊
I hope you’re good too of course 🙏
Very good and thanks for vidéo in Myanmar
I’m Cambodian and I’ve never been there. It’s funny how I watch it from a foreigner’s video
កោះនេះយេីងមិនទាន់អភិវឌ្ឍខ្លាំងទេតិចទៀតមានឧកញ្ញាខ្មែរកំពុងចង់អភិវឌ្ឍកោះនេះហេីយវានិងកាន់តែស្អាតជាងនេះទៅទៀត❤️️❤️️វានិងក្លាយជាឋានសួគ៌មួយ
how long do you recommend doing koh rong? tbh i'm actually half cambodian lol but i've never been to an island, same with my mum. we are already going to kampot, so we can easily get to kep beach as well which is nearby. not sure if i should just go to rabbit island during the day. my main goal is actually to see bioluminescent sea really, but this reminds me of sihanoukville back when i was little (without all the developments and the construction sites)
we're all adults now though so is it appropriate for me and my parents? i dont think they'd be pleased with young travellers lmao
Haha yeah I’m sure your parents will love it too. I’d stay 3nights if you’re able to. 2 nights on the “busy” part in the south. And 1 nights east of west cost (west is more white but more expensive). I hope it helps 🙏
There are two variations, Luk Lac which is the Cambodian version and Bo Luc Lak, a Vietnamese version. In Vietnamese Bo means beef and luc lac means shaking, it is cooked in a wok so this is also known as shaking beef.
In Cambodia, shaking beef is known as lok lak or loc lac (Khmer: ឡុកឡាក់) and often considered a national dish even though the dish originated in Vietnam.The original lok lak uses high-quality steak cut into cubes and pan-seared in French butter which stems from Indochina's French colonial past, while a simpler version influenced by Chinese culinary techniques uses cheap cuts of beef and Chinese oyster sauce.
Shaking beef or bo luc lac (Vietnamese: bò lúc lắc, French: bœuf lôc lac) is a Vietnamese dish that consists of beef sauteed with cucumber, lettuce, tomatoes, red onion, pepper, and soy sauce. The beef is cut into small cubes the size of playing dice (hột lúc lắc) before being sauteed. Beef used to be a luxury ingredient; the dish was therefore mostly served at formal events, such as wedding banquets and anniversaries,although now it has become a common food. Before French colonization, cows were only used for manual labour and were working animals.
Thank you for your explanation:)
Do I need any kind of permit to fly a drone in Cambodia? Can I bring drones into Cambodia?
No worries to bring it. Though be careful. Do not fly at Angkor Wat, Phnom Penh. Most places are fine. Please do a bit more research on Google before you come over :)
$450 for an unknown location and not as luxurious as it would cost to pay as much as a premium, fully-equipped lodging. Places to rest, restaurants, drinking places, and various activities. So I'm not surprised that I didn't see any tourists in this place.😂😁🤣
I don’t understand why you think this is so funny
@@Chai_Travelit’s a thai…of course they are always throwing shade…we are their arch enemy 😂
Chai - thank you so much for your videos! We are such big fans of your channel. Keep it up!
Was that woman attempting to sell her son for what we think she was? That exchange was a shocking one for a Westerner watching and enjoying your travels. 😭
Thanks! Haha I thought she was but as a joke, but she was actually just asking for a few dollars
Widest beach in the world? Been to Santa Monica or Huntington Beach?
Sorry 😅 I meant whitest! 🤓
@@Chai_Travel Oh! Ok! 555

iPhone 13 Pro attached to a DJI OM4 :) I hope it helps

Yes Koh Rong is a paradise for those who love white sand beaches. In my book amongst the best in the world.
Cambodia have white sand mountain near sihanoukville far way 65km , but this mountain government sell to private company, and continued sell to Thailand company, 200$ million.
I didn’t know
Great Video Lad! I Sure Hope The Chineses Dont Do Anything..
Thank you🙏
There are many places to visit more beauty than Koh Rong in Cambodia
I see. How about a more beautiful island than Koh Rong? 😊
Lok lak's food related from under French colony not from Vietnam, most Vietnamese are copied from Cambodia, also language too.
🇰🇭🙏
still beautiful, but i am afraid when airport is ready this island will be occupied by fancy resorts and prices will go to sky....
Your name Chai like Khmer name 😍
Lok Lak is original Cambodian cuisine. It's not from VN.
I think cause Lok Lak came from the word bò lúc lắc which mean beef stir and shake.
ឡុកឡាក់របស់យួនត្រូវហើយបង យើងត្រូវសិក្សាឱ្យសុីជម្រៅ

I don’t understand
28:40 a dude was chasing by a dinosaur
😝
Sea trash is all around. Looks better than the over hyped phu quoc.
I still need to visit Phu Quoc
@Chai_Travel I just watch vlogs and decided not for me.
Very beat.. unfortunately, the plastics are the neighboring beaches and is Latin Cambodia, Thailand ,Vietnam ….
