Cambodia Summer Holidays

With temperatures that flirt with the 30s and glorious natural landscapes bathed in golden sunlight, Cambodia summer holidays offer an escape unlike any other. There’re vegetation rich low-lying plains (thriving thanks to the rainy season being in full swing) and the winding Mekong Delta, that stretches across this Southeast Asian gem. The age-old temples, secluded sandy beaches and soul-stirring landscapes are bathed in equal measures of rain and sunlight and the summer months are a great time to explore (despite the wet weather at times), with fewer crowds and the countryside at its finest. You can explore the scenic riverside city of Kampot, walk between the ancient ruins of Siem Reap and speedboat your way over to Bamboo Island for some serious rest and relaxation before tucking into delicious Cambodian signature dishes from sizzling street food vendors to fine-dining eateries.

Cambodia Summer Holidays Guide

Practical advice and inspiration to help you prepare for your holiday

Cambodia summer holidays offer warm days, welcome sea breezes and vast green landscapes, with a climate that’s mild enough to ensure you can explore comfortably. While the summer months can prove less popular, with tourists choosing to holiday outside of the rainy season, there’s something to be said about the lush green vegetation and quieter crowds found at this time. With much of the country’s flora and fauna in full bloom, it’s the perfect time to appreciate this luscious country in all its glory.


You can laze away the day on the shores of Sihanoukville or Kep in Southern Cambodia (a snorkeler's paradise) or walk the sun-soaked streets of Krong Ta Khmau in search of pagodas, food and friendly-faced locals. Wildlife enthusiasts are in luck too, as you can find solace in the province of Preah Vihear, home to a green countryscape and tropical hardwood forest. Trek your way through Virachey National Park, with uninterrupted roaming and rich countryside, or explore the beautiful province of Mondulkiri, which thrives in the aptly named ‘green season’ and is famous for its snap-worthy wildlife and natural beauty. If you’re in need of a little retail therapy, shop yourself silly in Phnom Penh’s Central Market, a hub for all things art and antiques, before strutting along the capital's riverfront and stopping for a bite to eat (we recommend fried donuts washed down with a warm cup of Khmer Coffee from Mondulkiri Coffee for the ultimate mid-morning pick-me-up).


Cambodia summer holidays offer a medley of nature and frenzied urbanization, that’s perfect for every traveller seeking a holidaying experience with a difference.
