Sihanoukville
Relaxed Cambodian beaches, islands and waterfront flavours
On Cambodia’s southern coast, Sihanoukville sits along the Gulf of Thailand, with long sandy beaches lined by palms and casuarina trees.
It is the main coastal gateway to a string of small tropical islands just offshore, known for their clear water and quiet beaches.
The town itself is a mix of local neighbourhoods, beachfront cafés and a laid-back seaside atmosphere.
Fishing boats bring in the day’s catch each morning, and fresh seafood is served along the waterfront.
It is an easy place to slow down, walk the beach and enjoy a relaxed taste of Cambodia’s coast or venture further afield to nearby islands and mangroves.
