No Fast Food (O.K. .... Burger King and KFC have shown up on the scene.)
no ATM's nor 7-ELEVEN's or traffic signals (O.K. so maybe they just put in about 120 ATM's in the last few years, and our first 190 stop lights just went up, and KFC was already here and gone and back again. And 7-ELEVEN just opened it's first and 15th location in town...)
Beaches:
Three sides of SihanoukVille are surrounded by beaches. Eating, drinking, swimming, sleeping, reading, listening to music & walking are the main activities here. Many of the beaches are temporarily, we hope, not swimmable, however.
Ocean:
Scuba diving and snorkeling around the islands, boat trips to the islands, jet skis, overnight trips to the islands.
Eating:
You’re in Cambodia. Eat something Cambodian. SihanoukVille is known for it’s fresh seafood. There are also foods from all over the world, thanks to the over 10 non-Chinese foreign owned restaurants here. Other than that, there's over 800 100 Chinese restaurants in town.
Cycling:
(way too dangerous to drive yourself around here now, even bicycling)
Gambling:
With over 150 casinos open to the public in town (or maybe 30 by now), gambling is number one (if you are Chinese). Free rooms, free food, free cigarettes and drinks (coffee), and other things free too! (you just gotta gamble lots of money in your hotel's casino). How could you possibly go wrong???
Drinking:
Sports bars, late night bars, discos, karaoke bars, beach bars, mentertainment clubs, KTV, rooftop bars, street-side bars, pool-side bars, quiet bars, party bars, wine bars, sauna bars, coffee bars, jazz & blues bars, island bars, and you can even buy your own bar and drink for free.
Other Stuff:
shopping,, tattoos, walking, Wats (Buddhist Temples), massages, Ream National Park, casinos, learning to speak Khmer.
