    Koh Rong Sanloem Island

    Catch a train and ferry to this island getaway. Stay in beach bungalows but note many only have fans. Go snorkeling in the morning when visibility is best. Good advice from a traveler: "Pack reef-safe sunscreen as it's hard to find on the island. Also bring cash as ATMs are limited."
