KAMPOT ESTUARY CRUISE
Departing from the Kampot riverside seawall at 10.00 am we travel the full length of the Kampot eastern estuary into the Gulf of Thailand.
As we travel we pass numerous attractions such as the main Kampot cargo port, Kampot salt fields, local fishing villages and boats and finally the lush green mangrove reserves that surround the seaway entrance.
Passing through the estuary channel we enter the gulf where we anchor for our swimming opportunity and a relaxing lunch surrounded by the landscape of the Cambodian southern coast with views from Kep to Bokor Mountain and beyond.
Returning home at the same leisurely pace we arrive back at the Kampot riverside at 2.00 pm to conclude our quiet and peaceful journey.
Definitely “An Occasion to Remember”.
