ferry boat from the local port. The island is open for visitors and tourists, who value white sand beaches and the marine scenery. The surrounding sea is shallow, the sea bed gradually sloping, excellent for recreational activities. A number of coral reefs and a variety of habitats for animals and plants attract researchers and ecologists.
During Norodom Sihanouk's Sangkum Reastr Niyum regime (1953 to 1970), the island was a rehabilitation center for convicted criminals, who were in turn used to defend the island. Horse cart paths and wooden, thatched roof hotels were also constructed during this time. Most of this infrastructure has been destroyed by weather and decades of war.
Currently there are individually built and run guest houses on the main beach, attracting Cambodian and foreign tourists. Local settlers - fishermen and their families also live on the island, occupying other beaches around the shoreline.
In September 2021, the Try Pheap Koh Tunsay Resorts company owned by Cambodian tycoon Try Pheap began construction of a 144 hectare project on Koh Tonsay. The company was awarded a concession for 50 years to develop the island in 2019. The company has pledged to maintain 60 per cent forest cover on the island.
