Bamboo Island is a pristine tropical paradise located about one hour by boat from Sihanoukville. The island features undeveloped beaches with unique shallow water characteristics. Walking through ankle-deep crystal-clear waters, visitors can observe various small fish and crabs gliding past their feet. The island is known for its abundant marine life, and it's not uncommon to spot sea cucumbers resting peacefully on the beach, creating a fascinating natural spectacle. The shallow waters make it an ideal destination for families with children and those who prefer calm swimming conditions. The beach remains largely untouched by commercial development, offering an authentic and serene island experience. Visitors can enjoy snorkeling in the clear waters to observe colorful tropical fish and coral formations. The island's natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere make it perfect for relaxation, beach walks, and nature photography. The journey to the island itself is scenic, passing through beautiful coastal waters. Bamboo Island represents one of the last remaining pristine beach destinations in the Sihanoukville area, where visitors can experience Cambodia's natural coastal beauty in its most authentic form.
Paradise on Earth!!! Exceptional service and attentive staff
Alila resort, peaceful and upscale relax and peaceful beach. Private butler provided with 4 bedroom private villa. Recommended.
I was there 10 years ago so not much development at that time. It is not too far from SIhanouk ville and we came back enjoying the snorkeling to see coral reef at Koh Tres on the way - not sure if they have the speedboat now.
Koh Russey or Bamboo island will see a huge development for tourists.
Great clean beautiful beach. Unfortunately, we went on a small boat on windy day and it almost capsized many times which seemed funny for the captain. My relatives were all sick when we arrived so we spent much of the afternoon on the beach and not exploring the mountains. My advice, take a big boat.
