Sihanouk Ville is about 230 km southwest of Phnom Penh and today it has become one of the world’s famous prestin beach. On weekends and public holidays, the beaches are crowded with local Khmers, tourists and expatriates. Being a coastal town, there are many restaurants serving fresh local seafood specialties as well as international cuisine. Crabs, prawns, lobsters, mantis shrimp, live fish, scallops and exotic shellfish abound _ the range of delicacies seems endless. It is Cambodia’s only maritime port. Its chief attraction are the four beaches that ring the headland. None of them rival Thailand’s finest, but during weekdays you quite often have the beach to yourself.

It isn’t the world’s most sophisticated resort, but if you feel the need to escape the searing heat of Cambodia’s dry season, this make a pleasant retreat at the same. It is popular during festivals and remains dry and hot from December to July. Sihanouk Ville is not a small place, so the best way to get around is to hail a moto-driver or hire a motorbike. Sihanouk Ville is east of Victory Beach, the main backpackers’ beach, and closer to the mid-range Ochheuteal Beach and popular Sokha Beach . West of town is tiny Koh Pos Beach and the larger Independence Beach, which is home to the decaying and empty Independence Hotel.
