Cambodia Beach Resorts
Cambodia's coastline is extensive, but it's important to seek out organized beaches for a comfortable experience. Swimming in the Gulf of Thailand is typically limited to designated areas. Local unprepared shores may appear shallow with a slight bottom slope, but beware of tidal cycles that can restrict swimming at certain times of the day. The waters of the Indian Ocean also harbor potentially dangerous marine life, so it's advisable to consult with locals regarding swimming and diving in specific areas.

- Kep
- Co Rong

Thermal Spas in Cambodia
Unfortunately, spa vacations are not highly developed in this country yet. While you can find spa facilities in luxury hotels in major cities, thermal spas are relatively scarce. One option is the Te Teuk Pus hot springs, located in the village of Phnom Te, which is about 60 km west of the city of Kampongspy. In any case, consider hotels in seaside resorts and explore their offerings.
