Do you have a Cambodian trip report you want to share? Post it here, and feel free to link to your blog if it's a travel blog for Cambodia, South East Asia, or anywhere really. You can ask and answer questions about travel advice in Cambodia or just share your pictures and videos with us.

Discussions about dirt bike trails in here as well.

Who wears wetsuits for swimming?
You’re either talking about surfing or swimming. Surfing you hang around a lot so need a wetty.

Summer time temp in that area reach between 28 c and 34 c
That’s air temperatures. It’s still bloody cold on the sea!

Only cold if you dont wear something. Surfing wet suits are in fashion and have been for years.

Wear something like this.

Waterproof too :)

England doesnt have any beaches, just ugly sandpits full of cigarette buts, donkey shit, and murky gray water where whales come to die

nope, Wetsuits keep you warm in the water they are not waterproof,
Drysuits are waterproof to keep the user warmer in colder waters by not allowing skin contact with the water

Ahh the old wetsuit drysuit debate!
Wetsuits are more popular because they are cheap, thin and don’t need training and they look cool and are easy to repair.

Drysuits are for the UK.

What a ridiculous article!

I have been on many beaches all over the world, of course not on all, not by far! The nicest beaches I have been were in Thailand (Koh Tao, Koh Panang, Coral Island, Ang Tong national parc, Phi Phi. These beaches are so so much nicer than all european beaches. I have been to most beaches in France, Netherlands, Belgium, spain, Italy, Greece, Rhodos etc etc. Not even close as nice as the Thai beaches!!! Have never been in South America because it doesn't attract me, so I can't judge about them!

Looks like some guys are just too busy to go swimming anyway.

Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
