Koh Rong
Koh Rong is a car-free jungle island off Cambodia's south coast, ringed by powder-white beaches and known for its backpacker energy in Koh Touch village contrasted with near-empty stretches of sand elsewhere on the island. Beyond the beach bars, its interior is thick tropical forest with few roads, and its waters glow with bioluminescent plankton after dark.
