The beach is modest in size compared to those of Sihanoukville, stretching just a few hundred meters along a sheltered bay flanked by casuarina trees and backed by a pleasant promenade of restaurants and seafood shacks. The calm, shallow water makes it suitable for relaxed swimming, and fishing boats anchored just offshore add to the laid-back maritime character. Kep's greatest culinary claim is its famous fresh blue swimming crabs, and the beach promenade is lined with restaurants grilling them with the region's renowned Kampot pepper.

The cave walls are decorated with Buddhist shrines added in more recent centuries, creating a layered spiritual history spanning over 1,500 years. Dramatic stalactites and stalagmites frame the ancient temple, and natural light filtering through a crack in the cave roof creates an atmospheric glow.

The compound comprises 44 buildings including a main sanctuary, stupas, library, and monks' quarters housing hundreds of resident monks. During the Khmer Rouge period the complex was severely damaged and its library destroyed.
