Had a great time with my coworkers at Kep Beach. The waves were calm near the shore, but further out they got bigger and more exciting. It was a thrilling experience.

Getting to this beach may be a bit challenging compared to the smaller ones, but it's definitely worth the effort! Just follow the narrow unpaved path surrounded by tall grasses, coconut trees, and wild plants. And there you have it - your own private beach! The water has a greenish hue, and if you walk to the east, you'll come across some mangroves.

The beach is quite dirty with plastic litter, but it has the potential to be beautiful if it were clean.
