Overview

Koh Pring, (Khmer: កោះព្រីង, Jambul Island, Koh Prins(former French name) is a Cambodian island in the gulf of Thailand, 64 km off the coastal city of Sihanoukville. Official sources provide no data of civilian communities on the "Outer Islands".

Koh Pring is situated around 5-6 hours off the mainland about 3 hours south-west of Koh Rong Saloem. It comprises of 3 small islands.

The “big” island, Koh Prins, has a small fishing village and two sandy beaches, the centre being grass and trees surrounded by rocks towards the shore; Koh Moan (Chicken Island) is the middle island and has trees and rocky beaches; the smaller island consists of a rocky outcrop (Naked Island).

Visibility ranges from 10-30m with average vis being around 20m and depth between 10 and 40m. Whalesharks are spotted here around Dec and again in May. Its remoteness from the mainland makes this a very exclusive trip.
