weather in sihanoukville in july

just wondering if anybody has any info on Monsoon weather in July in the sihanoukville area. spending July travelling through Loas and down to Cambodia and thaught the beaches would be a nice way to finish, does it rain all day every day or it it like Ko Samui and Ko Tao etc, just a downpour for a while and then sun. was thinking about Na trang in Vietnam but it just looks very built up. would it be better to just go to Ko chang if we really want a beach at the end?

weather in sihanoukville in july

We were in Cambodia and spent a week in Sihanoukville during June. Weather was hot and dry. I think we only had one or two afternoon showers during our whole trip.

The beach time that we had there was great. Evening BBQs on the beach sipping very cheap cocktails whilst listening to the ocean was divine.

We have some pics and stories of our trip here... www.bobandjanette.com which may help.

Happy %26amp; safe travels

weather in sihanoukville in july

just had a look at your fantastic web site and just wondering if you could give your views on the trip my girlfriend and i are thinking of taking this july 6th to august 8th.

( ten days ) fly in to bangkok and overnight train to chang mai , travel down on slow boat through Laos and visit vang vieng and vientiene .

(ten days) cambodia , siem riep and sihnoukville

(7 days). hcmc , mekong trip and then train north stopping in danang and Hoi an and on to hanoi

(3 days) halong bay

fly hanoi to bangkok

leaving 3 days for delays etc.

do you think this is a bit too rushed and if we had to leave out something what would be the best option, we were thinking of leaving northern vietnam for another time !

Hey guys, thanks for the lovely comments and that sounds like a fantastic trip. Not sure how long you planned for Chiang Mai but you need a few days there and a shame that you are missing the Thai islands and places like Kanchanaburi. Using an overnight sleeper train to CM will save on accommodation and you wont lose a days travel.

10 days in Cambodia will allow you to see Sihanoukvlle, Phnom Penh and Siem Reap, although a little rushed as it is half a days bus travel between each place. I would perhaps be tempted to drop Laos to allow a little extra time in Cambodia and Vietnam, although Laos for us is still coming (this November)

In central Vietnam Hoi An and Hue both need at least a couple of days each.

Your in for the trip of a lifetime, so enjoy and stay safe.

thanks ! had an amazing five weeks last year on the thai islands and trekking in Chang Mai so just going to explore Laos ,Cambodia Vietnam this time. think we will try to fit it all in , thanks for tips
