In order to investigate drinking water sources of inhabitants residing in the South coastal area of Cambodia, fifty-nine and twenty-three water samples were collected from Kampot and Kep provinces, respectively. On-site and chemical measurements were performed following USEPA methods. Analytical results revealed that 28.6% of tube well, 28.6% of dug well and 40% of pond were saline. Approximately, 2.6% of tube well and 17.9% of dug well had As &gt; 10 ppb. Likewise, 29.3% of tube well, 28.6% and 60% of pond had Fe &gt; 0.3 mg L −1  whereas 47.5% of tube well, 45.7% of dug well and 20% of pond had Mn &gt; 0.1 mg L −1 . Moreover, 2.5% tube well had F -  &gt; 1.5 mg L −1 ; 5.7% of tube well and 14.3% of dug well had NO 3-  &gt; 50 mg L −1 . This study suggests that some inhabitants residing in the Southern coastal area of Cambodia are exposed to contaminants of health concern (As, F - , NO 3- ) and experienced water salinization and esthetic properties through their water consumption. As such, water treatment technologies for removing As, F -  and NO 3-  are necessary for coastal inhabitants to minimize their potential health risks.
