Ko Pos Beach

Travel guide


This little beach is home to the rather oddly named Treasure Island Seafood Restaurant, and although not on an island, you can see islands, and, it's certainly a treasure of a spot, with seafood that many an expat will tell you is the best in Sihanoukville.

The sandy, well shaded beach here is small and secluded, with a few salas that belong to the solitary restaurant overlooking the water. Stuff yourself on seafood then go for a swim afterwards -- what more could you ask for? Just watch out for the monkeys -- as they won't miss an opportunity to fiddle through your possessions while you're 20 metres offshore.

The beach is named after Ko Pos (Snake Island) which lies just offshore. Ko Pos is best visited from Hawaii Beach, just around the headland from Ko Pos, where there are no shortage of boatmen who'll whisk you over. A trip out is pleasant enough, but the beaches are nothing too magnificent.


 
















Treasure Island Seafood Restaurant is an excellent option for a seafood lunch, with the crab a real stand out. Arrive early to grab your own seaside sala rather than getting stuck in the restaurant proper, which has the atmosphere of a bus shelter. The menu is endless, but anything in the pepper sauce is pretty good.

As already mentioned, be wary of taking a table too far from the restaurant as the hillock is home to a bunch of cheeky monkeys -- and based on our personal experience, they eat crab.

The menu is moderately priced so long as you don't eat too much crab. Commonly hailed by expats as having the best seafood in Sihanoukville. Recommended.
