• By Public Bus + Moto or Tuk Tuk

One of the most budget-friendly ways to reach Nesat Village is by taking a public bus and finishing the journey with a short transfer by motorbike or tuk-tuk. Bus tickets can be booked online via www.camboticket.com or through the VET app.

Book any bus heading to Koh Kong. When boarding, simply inform the driver that you’d like to get off at Boeung Preav/Bus Station NESAT BEACH. You can show them this pin:  https://maps.app.goo.gl/gaCJGBuELRfvh8jV7. Most drivers will recognise it once shown on the map.

🛵 From the Bus Stop to Nesat Village

Once you’ve arrived at the bus station, you can easily find a local motorbike taxi to take you to Nesat Village. Rides take 30 minutes and cost approximately $5 USD.

If you’re travelling in a group, a tuk-tuk is an ideal option and can be arranged in advance through your guesthouse. We recommend letting them know your arrival time at least one hour in advance to avoid waiting—approximately 10usd. 

Alternative bus option from Sihanoukville (if the other bus is fully booked)

If no buses are available to Koh Kong, you can still reach Nesat Village via Srae Ambel. Head to the Sihanoukville Bus Terminal (https://maps.app.goo.gl/hGRDciHULyceuPWE7) and book a ticket to Srae Ambel (the junction of N4 and N48). Ask to be dropped off at the Tela Gas Station: https://maps.app.goo.gl/LfGMRQbr9arGThsr9.
 ⚠️ Important: This option is only available on buses that take National Road 4—buses using the expressway will not pass this stop.
