Cambodian people is the target of this tourism destination for making profit to support the national resort- Lake of Kayak in Koh Kong province- where has been created by community under support from provincial governor, partial budget of commune council, and international organizations in 2007. The creation of this natural resort is because of deforestation of Mangrove forests and the decline of sea fish.

Visiting this community-based resort, you will walk cross 1,000 long cement bridge and then you will hear the voice of birds’ songs, and see sea fish swimming within the stream. Visitors will be able to take a rest at the hatch-roofed huts in order to take fresh airs. At the bridge’s end, you will see the hanging bridge, which is 15 meter high.

The local tourists who visit the Lake of Kayak are at least ranging from 60 to 70 visitors per normal day and the number is doubling over the weekend. The increasing number of visitors is during the Khmer New Year and special events.
