Mui Ne, the lonely beach

The first impression we had once we arrived in Mui Ne was “Holy shit! Where have we arrived?” Our bus stopped at the beginning of that 10 km long beach town, right at the door of a 4 star resort, which was surrounded by many others of the same category. We didn’t feel comfortable there and the first thing we did was to ask for a mass-tourism-free-spot in town. Luckily, there were still some places further north where we could stay cheaper and without the annoyances of high luxury tourist services and so on.

Sihanoukville

Further north in the coast, the area around Sihanoukville is being spoiled by property investors speculating with the coastal terrains, constructing resorts and privatising beaches, since tourism is proving the industry of the future. We were expecting to find hordes of tourists and Khmer families enjoying the beaches and massive tourist development all around the area, but we got such a nice surprise once we arrived there.

Kampot, Kep and Koh Tonsay Island

| No Comments

The south coast of Cambodia is blessed with tropical white sand beaches, little islands, small fishing communities and national parks. It is a good place to relax, after being in the stressing city of Phnom Penh. It is also visited by very little number of tourists, since development here is very low at the moment.
