Dear fellow travellers, have you ever heard of the island of KOH RONG SANLOEM? No? Well, you better start remembering the name of this gem of an island, because it is absolute paradise!
Here are my 5 reasons why you should hop on that boat and step ashore this beautiful little island:
- Number 1: There are no roads
Yes, that's correct - no cars!!! The island is made of beach and jungle and it is kept that way, which means you get an amazing Robinson Crusoe feel, added with a nice Cocktail on the beach :)
- Number 2: Swings! Everywhere!
There are swings and hammocks to chill in all along the beach, which makes not only a great photo for your next Steemit post, but it's also amazing to just relax after a round of swimming of beach frisbee!!
- Number 3: The beach. Really.
I think I have hardly ever seen sand so white like you can find it on Koh Rong. Not only that the sand is amazing, the beach is also super clean and there is no rubbish pollution in the water, which is getting harder and harder to find these days.
- Number 4: The vibe!
This island has PARADISE written all over it, and everybody can feel exactly that! The whole energy on the island gets you so relaxed, it's perfect to unwind and just enjoy with your fellow islanders :)
- Number 5: The pizza. No joke :D
Seriously, when we heard that we HAD to try the pizza place there, at first I thought 'Why would I eat pizza in a place like this'? But once we got there and tried the pizza fresh from the stone-oven, we could not help but order another serving! It was just TOO good! So do yourself a favour and go to the northern end of the beach and try that stone-oven pizza place, it's really worth it!
And if those 5 reasons have not yet convinced you, maybe the fact that you can swim in the clearest, most turquoise water almost by yourself and that you can watch stunning sunrises AND sunsets only a few meters apart is helping you to make your decision, at least that's what it would really do for me!
Are you ready? So then, what are you waiting for? Pack your backpacks and hop on this little paradise, I hope you will love it as much as I did!
Peace, love and light!
