Diving in Cambodia

Explore diving in Cambodia

Beyond its temples, diving in Cambodia offers vibrant marine life along the Gulf of Thailand. Koh Rong, Koh Tang, and other offshore islands feature coral reefs, rocky pinnacles, and sandy bottoms that attract schools of tropical fish, rays, seahorses, and occasional reef sharks. Visibility varies but is often excellent for spotting macro life like nudibranchs and shrimps. With warm waters, uncrowded dive sites, and a mix of shallow and deeper reefs, Cambodia scuba diving is ideal for adventurous divers seeking untouched Caribbean-style reefs in Southeast Asia.

More Information

Travelers accessing Cambodia dive sites usually fly into Phnom Penh (PNH) or Siem Reap (REP) for land connections to the coast, or Sihanoukville International Airport (KOS) for direct access to the southern islands. From Sihanoukville, boats transfer divers to Koh Rong, Koh Rong Samloem, and Koh Tang within 30–90 minutes. Local dive operators handle logistics, including equipment rental and guided dives. With organized transfers and accessible dive centers, Cambodia scuba diving holidays are easy to plan for both beginners and experienced divers.
