The newly opened Kampot International Tourism Port (KITP) is transforming Cambodia’s tourism. Located just 10 kilometers from Kampot city, KITP aims to welcome 500,000 tourists in 2025 and 1 million by 2026, offering exciting opportunities to explore Kampot’s stunning natural landscapes and cultural treasures.
High-Speed Ferries Boost Regional Connections
KITP has partnered with Vireak Buntham Express Co. Ltd. (VET) to launch high-speed ferry services, connecting Cambodia to Vietnam and Thailand. Ferries, with a capacity of 300 passengers, will operate twice daily to Vietnam’s Phu Quoc island (Koh Tral), a quick 40-minute trip. Additional routes to Trat in Thailand, Sihanoukville, and Koh Kong are planned, solidifying Kampot’s role as a regional travel hub.
Enhancing Kampot’s Appeal
Completed with a $10 million investment by the Asian Development Bank and AZ Group, KITP is a key milestone for Kampot. Its proximity to Phnom Penh (150 km) and status as Cambodia’s second most popular destination, after Angkor Wat, make it an attractive choice for both local and international visitors.
Kampot’s charm lies in its scenic mountains, tranquil rivers, and eco-friendly accommodations like camping sites and bungalows. In 2024, Kampot welcomed nearly 400,000 visitors on New Year’s Eve, including 56,000 foreigners, showcasing its growing popularity.
