Sihanoukville is a sleepy beach town in Cambodia on the Gulf of Thailand. In December, the beach is a wonderful location to watch Mother Nature do her factor in spectacular fashion.

Sihanoukville

Named immediately after a Cambodian King, Sihanoukville isnt simple to get to, but it is worth the hassle. If youre coming from Thailand, the greatest choice is to cross the border at Koh Kong and grab a boat to Sihanoukville. The boat requires roughly four hours, but beats taking on Cambodian roads, which are pure hell. If youre coming from any location inside of Cambodia, try to get to the major highway amongst Phnom Penh and Sihanoukville as it is the only road without having potholes, missing bridges, etc.

Sihanoukville bends up and about a point of land on the Gulf of Thailand. The town can best be described as getting like a beach resort in Thailand sans the tourist masses. Rooms on the beach will set you back 5 to ten dollars a night, which isnt much to watch a magnificent light show.

Mother nature has a habit of burning off excess power in the Gulf of Thailand each December. This particular metaphysical yoga comes in the type of lightning. Lots of it.

Starting close to nine in the evening, the sky becomes a cascade of rolling thunder and bolts of blazing light. The complete show requires place possibly twenty miles or so offshore, so you get all of the effect without having the danger.

The very best location to watch Mother Nature do her factor is Ochheuteal Beach. The beach is long and narrow, but lined with little restaurants. The tables for these restaurants consist of small footstools sitting in between to beach chairs next to the water. The food is very good and you wont discover a far better seat in the house for the light show.

The light show is extremely captivating. The complete sky will light up in 1 blast to then be followed by a trail of lightning strikes moving across the sky. To enhance the impact, the restaurants have a habit of playing music. As the show progresses, one starts to get the feeling the lightning is taking place in synchronicity with the music.

Hey, possibly Mother Nature likes Pink Floyd!
