In the opposite direction from Otres on the other side of Ochheuteal is a
radiant stretch of almost white sand and clear shallow waters: Sokha Beach wins our vote for the most eye-pleasing and relaxing beach in Sihanoukville.
The beach is backed by the huge Sokha Beach Resort,
the first — though no doubt, not the last — truly flash hotel to plunk
down in Sihanoukville. Although it’s a shame to see one resort dominate
the sand, at least they look after it well: the beach is near-always
clean and the water sparkling. There is a very shallow drop off here, so
you can wander a long way out into the water before it gets deep,
making it ideal for those with young children.
