Scuba Nation Cambodia - PADI Diving and Instruction in the Gulf of Thailand (Sihanoukville and Phnom Penh)

Scuba Nation is located on Sothearos Blvd - the same road as the Royal Palace near Wat Ounalom. You will have to take a motorcycle taxi (moto-dup), tuk-tuk (motorcycle with trailer) or taxi to get around town. There are now some metered taxis – there are small call-up services and your guest house or travel agent can always arrange a car for the day for you. A car will be around $30 per day. Motos from 2000R per trip and tuk-tuks a bit more, around $ 1-2 per short trip.

Flights

The international airport is situated about 30mins outside the city. On arrival, taxis and motorcycle taxis (moto-dups) can be hired just outside the arrival lobby. There are no metered taxis. Taxis cost $9 for the trip into the city centre, moto-dups about $3. Prices may change due to rising fuel prices.


Buses/Taxis

Most of the buses and shared taxis stop at the Central Market (Psar Tmei) in the centre of town. Private taxis should take you to your guest house. From the market you will have to get a motorcycle taxi (moto-dup) or tuk-tuk (motorcycle with trailer) to your guest house or hotel and prices here are higher than ordinary rates.
