Koh Rong to Sihanoukville Destination Reviews

PB
I get that they want to pack the boat to the maximum. But it was to crowded. People had to stand up the whole ride. And people sitting like sardines in a can.

The boat had changed departure times but I had not been notified, in the port from where the boats arrive and depart there are no offices where you can go if you have problems as happened to me.

The sea state was quite rough so the actual journey was a little bumpy but that's not the fault of the company. The captain did his best to keep to the timings without making the journey dangerous. I was primarily impressed that they managed to store all the luggage in the bow and they all came out dry which was a pleasant surprise. As a recommendation - if the sea is rough, sit on the inner seats inside as when the waves come over the boat, the windows leak and I did get a little wet from where the water came through but it wasn't that bad. Obviously, do not sit on the bow unless it's an incredibly calm day or you don't care about getting wet!

the boat was new and comfortable and the team was competent, helping passengers board even with strong waves and working quickly to keep to schedule. However, the boat driver drove it at a crazy speed and the passengers were jumping the entire trip, as if we were on a roller coaster. As the windows were open we got wet, some people were soaked for the whole day. We arrived at our destination 01:30 after boarding, and not 45 minutes as it said on the ticket.

Easy boat service, there’s one or two stops on the way so we got in about 45 mins later than advertised but everything else was fine

We have had a good experience. We went from Sihanoukville to Koh Rong Koh Toch Beach, but the boat has stopped at Longset Beach before, so keeping this in mind you can always expect some delays to the schedule shown in the booking. If you are flexible within a period of an hour you are fine. In our case going there and return we haven’t had any problems as we calculated some spare time. The boat ride itself was fun 👍

It was on time, the driver was very good and we did only one stop, not like other companies that stop everywhere. I recommend!

Not a good experience. We were meant to arrive at 11:30pm, we arrived at 3:00am. There was also bad communication from the driver when it came to changing vehicles when we crossed the border.

Travelling by ferry essentials

  • We do recommend buying your ferry tickets in advance, especially if your route is served by smaller vessels that offer a limited number of daily departures. To book in advance is of primary importance not only during the high season but off-season, too. Sometimes it is ok to show up at the pier and hop on the next ferry but remember that this is not possible for any destination, and you may end up waiting for hours for the next departure and to have to change your travel plans.
  • Shipping is highly dependent on weather conditions. It mostly refers to the open sea routes, e.g. between the destinations in the open sea and the coast as well as between the islands scattered in the sea. If the waves are high, even the islands which sit closest to the shore are often cut off from the continent – all vessels may be ordered to remain in the harbor. So do keep in mind that during stormy weather, delays and cancellations may occur. Strong winds and heavy rains may interfere with your sea journey, too. So take it into consideration while making your travel plans.
  • Very often, a more expensive fare means less time spent on board, though the difference in price also may be due to the different cabin classes. Always check how long your trip lasts – it may be worth paying extra to cut your travel time to an hour instead of three, right? Travel time can be crucial if you are prone to seasickness, so choosing the cheapest ferry ticket is not always a good idea.
  • Speedboats bring you to the destination in the shortest time possible, while fast catamarans are also a decent choice, often taking only slightly more time. On some routes, slower and sometimes overnight ships are available, proving a prudent option if you are ready to spend a night on board. It actually allows you to save some bucks in your pocket that you would have otherwise spent on a hotel room. Yet again – longer ferry trips are not for everyone.
  • If you are prone to seasickness, take medicine half an hour before you board your ferry, not when you have already started feeling nausea – this way it will not help. Opt for staying on the open deck with a fresh breeze blowing into your face wherever possible. On vessels with several decks, the lower one normally feels more stable, while the upper one often is more of a rock-n-roll type.
  • A rule of thumb, choose bigger and more stable car ferries or high-speed boats if you suffer from rough seas. The former feels very steady even when stormy, and the latter is fast. Avoid catamaran-like ferries as they ride the wave rather than cut through it – which means constant ups and downs, ups and downs, OMG. If you happen to choose a catamaran, do follow our recommendation above.
  • Ferry is often not the only way to travel between certain destinations. It is obviously more scenic but usually pricier and may take much longer than if opting for a flight or a bus ride. Before you go, check if your island destination is connected to the mainland with a bridge – many islands which are located close to the shore, in fact, are.
  • Always put on your life jacket. Regulations around the world differ greatly and, in some countries, are more relaxed than in others. Anyway, almost everywhere, passengers are supposed to wear their life vests. If you are not provided with one, do not hesitate to ask where they are located.
  • Note that piers at some destinations collect a special ‘pier fee’ from all arriving passengers. As a rule, this fee is not included in your ticket price and should be paid on arrival.
  • Reading other travellers’ reviews is the best way to get an idea of what to expect from your ferry trip. Do check their experience to get the most out of your sea journey.
