can someone help me,
I'v been traveling around aisa for 2 months now and i'm off to cambodia next, i'm thinking about doing a bit of diving while i'm there
, i'll be spending a most of my time in sihnoukville.
currently have my open water and i'm looking at doing some fun dives, maybe my advanced course.
if anyone has been diving there and could tell me about the sites,conditions, prices and what marine life would be most helpful
thankyou

Hey there,
Well, you'll be in the right area for diving. There are a few islands where diving is most prominent from Sihanoukville. Lots of rocky outcrops, reefs, inner and outter islands. Marine life and visibilty are both comparable to the Gulf of Thailand yet better because there hasn't been thousands of divers in the area in the past. New sites get discovered often which is pretty cool too. There are tons of dive places offering instruction and excursions. I haven't been diving there but have been diving along the Gulf many times.

Best dives are supposed to be 4-8 hours off shore at Koh Tong, Koh Prins and Paulo Wai. I believe there are two shipwrecks in the area too. Prices i'm just not too sure on but i'm sure you could get an idea online.......
