Kep

Kep (near the southern Viet Nam border) is a great beach resort area; it is very lush and tropical with beautiful clean waters. During the French colonial period it was Cambodia’s luxury destination for the rich and famous from around the world.  Although you can find some gay life walking around, there is no real gathering place for such.  There are a lot of cute beach boyz and tuk tuk drivers that can be friendly. Be sure to check out Teuk Chhou Zoo, and for a nice daytrip, go to Koh Tonsay (Rabbit Island). There is a gay resort in Kep.
