3. Otres Beach
This Cambodian beach is a part of the resort city of Sihanoukville but far enough away to offer a more remote experience. Sihanoukville’s Otres Beach is a five-minute moto-taxi ride from downtown or from nearby Ochheuteal Beach (the main tourist beach in the area). The water here is cleaner and clearer, and the beach is fronted by a row of tall casuarina and palm trees.
4. Ream Beach
Ream Beach is a part of Ream National Park, located about 30 minutes from Sihanoukville City. This large nature preserve includes a long stretch of raw beach. There are some fishermen’s shacks and a few tiny, family-run beach cafés. There are also covered seating areas with rows of hammocks. Nearby is a mangrove wetlands area. It’s a good place to visit to escape the crowds of some of Sihanoukville’s busier beaches, especially on weekends or holidays.
