Sihanoukeville is 250km south of Capital
Phnom Penh city.
Sihanoukville by the Sea
'Beach town', 'port
community', 'fledgling resort destination' - all describe Sihanoukville,
Cambodia's premier beach town. Sihanoukville's white sand beaches and warm Gulf
of Thailand waters combine with a laid back, beachy atmosphere to provide a
great little tropical getaway. Sihanoukville is a place to unwind by the beach,
enjoy the fresh from-the-ocean seafood, take in a snorkeling or scuba trip, and generally slow-down, lay
back and chill-out.
Sihanoukville has a different look and feel than most
Cambodian towns. Constructed as a port city in the late 1950s, the town is much
newer, more urban and cosmopolitan than most Cambodian provincial cities.
Nowadays, Sihanoukville is as much a beach town as it is a port town, catering
to beach-going weekenders from Phnom Penh as well as a steadily increasing
number of foreign visitors. Still, the pace of life in Sihanoukville is very
relaxed. Cows occasionally wander the main road, outside town foreign faces draw
smiles and curious stares, and most of the beaches
offer only beach umbrellas, thatched roofed eateries, and a growing number of restaurants, bungalows and
hotels.
Sihanoukville has a more than ample supply of accommodations, including a 5-star resort complex on
Sokha Beach, several mid-range places downtown and at the beaches, a few
'upscale' three-star hotels, and dozens of budget guesthouses, especially on
Weather Station Hill (Victory Hill). Considering the moderate number of visitors
to Sihanoukville, the town offers a surprising number and variety of restaurants and bars. Fresh seafood, especially crab,
prawns and ocean fish, has always been one of the town's biggest draws, but
there is also a wide variety of places offering foreign cuisines - Australian,
French, Indian, German, Sri Lankan, British, Italian, pizza places, a couple of
western bakeries and even a espresso coffee shop. And these days Sihanoukville
offers a pretty good night life as well with a wide variety of bars staying open
well into the wee hours, especially on Weather Station Hill, in the downtown
area, and the beach bars on Ochheuteal, eSerendipityf and Victory
Beaches.
