Spending a few days on Bamboo Island, off Sihanoukville’s coast, is highly recommended especially if you’re looking for a change of view. The boat ride takes about half an hour and once there, you’ll find that only about 30 people live on the island. Unlike on the more frenetic mainland, there are usually no hawkers around and the bungalows are right on the casuarina tree-lined beach. You’ll usually encounter a few fellow day-trippers. But come nightfall, the island is practically deserted. Electricity is provided by 2 generators for the early hours of the evening but after that, you’ll need to rely on the moon and stars for light.
