Kampot Firefly Boat Tour

After dark, the mangroves along the river come alive with synchronized fireflies. Thousands of tiny lights blink in unison like Christmas trees made of insects. Float in silence as nature puts on its own light show.

Insider tips

• Best in dry season (Nov-May) when fireflies are most active

• No flash photography - it disturbs them

• Book through Naga House or riverside bars

• Bring a jacket - it gets cool on the water at night
