Boat for snorkeling on the island of Koh Russei. Koh Russei or Bamboo Island is one of a group of small islands in the Gulf of Thailand located about 10 km off the coast of Sihanoukville city, in southern Cambodia. For many years, Koh Russei was remarkable only as a small naval outpost. However, increasing development and rising tourist numbers in Sihanoukville brought tourism to the island. Koh Russei is a small island only a couple of kilometres long and is the nearest island to Sihanoukville offering budget accommodation lying just thirteen kilometres to the southeast. Often refered to as Bamboo Island or just Koh Ru there is only one operator on the island providing beach bungalows and dorm beds on an 800 metre long stretch of yellow sand. Activities revolve around the beach and swimming in the clear turquoise water with some snorkeling spots and fishing opportunities. Return boat fares are $ and tickets can be purchased from their agent on Serendipity Beach Road.
