Beach vacation in Cambodia is not so hard in the teeth, like the Turkish or Egyptian .This tourist destination is still unpopular among our compatriots, not all are aware that in the Khmer Kingdom there are beach resorts located on the shore of the Gulf of Thailand..Before the luxury Thai or Vietnamese resorts of Cambodia is really far, but a comfortable holiday with all the necessary attributes is possible here .In addition, Cambodia is famous for its picturesque islands, this is another argument when choosing local resorts .

The Forgotten Paradise of Kep

Kep - a small Cambodian town - at one time was considered almost the main beach resort of the country, however, unable to withstand competition with Sihanoukville, fell into decay. In recent years, tourists have again begun to show interest in this god-forgotten place, in which, besides the beach, the embankment and the crab monument, perhaps, nothing interesting. But after all we are interested in beach rest, and the beach here is remarkable, with volcanic sand of black color and enough clean water.

To the luxurious Thai or Vietnamese resorts of Cambodia is really far, but a comfortable holiday with all the necessary attributes is possible here.

Since there is no tourist boom here yet, Kep will be an excellent haven for those who want to relax from the megalopolises and populating their crowds.

A pleasant gastronomic discovery will be acquaintance with local cuisine, namely with seafood dishes: the glory of the taste of crabs, freshly caught and immediately cooked on the grill, thunders far beyond Kep.

In the hour of sailing from Kep, the Rabbit Island is located, where one must definitely visit. The place is very beautiful - an ideal example of a wild, untouched nature with white sandy beaches and the absence of any civilization.

Sihanoukville

Sihanoukville was built relatively recently, in the middle of the last century, so the abundance of historical and architectural monuments is not here. In fact, there are no usual sights here, but there is a sea, and the sun and the beach. What does the main resort of Cambodia offer tourists in return for food for mind? First of all Sihanoukville is a beach resort with a vibrant nightlife.

Local beaches are crammed with vacationers, at every step of the hotel, restaurants, souvenir shops, travel agencies with tempting offers to go fishing or buy a tour to romantic islands.

A few words about the beaches .The most visited and, as a consequence, the most polluted city beaches - Serendipity and the Cleaner .All come here, who are not too lazy, so calm rest and clean water on these beaches, of course, there is no $ $ .No better conditions on the Victoria beach, which is located next to the port .Beaches Otres and Ream infrastructure will not please: there are very few restaurants and other entertainment facilities, but there is no people, the water is clean and the sand is pleasant .The leader in cleanliness and comfort is Sokha beach, there are sunbeds with umbrellas, a cafe and amazing cleanliness, only one disappoints: the Sokha beach is accessible only to visitors of the resort Sokha Beach Resort .However, especially persistent people try to solve this problem, privately bargaining with security and, it should be noted, in most cases successfully .

Islands of Cambodia

The most romantic island - Koh Rong - attracts not only its impressive views and white beaches, but also a small bay in the form of a heart. Sun-Neil Island captivates with its relaxing atmosphere and amazing beaches sparkling in the sun, and the island of Koh Tan is an earthly paradise for diving fans.
