While some islands are now reachable by plane or are connected to the mainland with a bridge, ferries remain the only way to reach some of the most beautiful and amazing islands, hidden beaches, or other seaside destinations. Larger and slower car ferries carry vehicles and passengers around the world, but in certain cases, you will need to opt for a smaller yet faster express high speedboat or catamaran to reach your destination. While the latter does save you time, caution should be taken if you are prone to seasickness. When the sea is, rough high-speed boats which actually cut the waves are a better option than catamarans that ride the waves instead hence turning your journey into a rock-and-roll trip. To prevent or beat motion sickness, we recommend taking a special medication – consult your doctor prior to the journey. While on board, grab a seat on an open-air deck wherever possible.
Ferry trips offered by Island Speed Ferry Cambodia can be booked online – in an easy and hassle-free manner, without wasting your time visiting the booking office.

Island Speed Ferry Cambodia Ferry Types & Tickets Prices
High-speed fast ferries always hit the hardest on your pocket. If you need to save money, check whether some slower options are available on your route – usually the rates are much more affordable. It is a rule of thumb to check the length of the trip before booking. On longer routes, the difference in travel time can be huge. Note that not all ticket fares or classes are always available on any route. During peak seasons it is a good idea to make your booking in advance as the availability of more expensive private cabins is often limited. Opting for walk-in tickets on the most popular routes during these periods can result in long waiting queues. Some destinations have more than one pier or different piers for different ferry companies hence goes the recommendation to check the pier you leave from/dock at before your trip. Leave enough time before the departure to find your boat and check in. These procedures may take up to a couple of hours on international routes. Last but not least, some piers impose their own ‘pier fee’ on all arriving passengers. This fee is normally not included in your ticket price – keep this in mind.
Travel by Ferry: Pros & Cons
Pros of Ferry Travel
Taking a ship allows you to get to some of the islands, beaches, or seaside destinations which otherwise cannot be reached. While ferry travels can be time-consuming and sometimes make you suffer from sea sickness, the possibility of visiting the most paradise, secret, off-the-beaten-track destinations they bring you to usually compensates.
Ferry tickets can be booked online. It saves you time and secures your travel itinerary goes as planned. The advanced booking option is especially convenient when travelling during peak season periods, national holidays, or long weekends when there is high demand for tickets and on routes served by a limited number of vessels.
On some routes, you are able to choose the class of the ticket or cabin. There are private compartments or standard cabins with a number of extras included or not. Always check the conditions of your fare to take most of your trip.
Ferry travel is always fun. It allows you to see the places you visit or just pass by from a different angle. The majority of places look terrific – and totally different! – when viewed from the water. Sailing provides a great opportunity to shoot nice and unique pics and videos – do jump at it!
Cons of Ferry Travel
The major concern while travelling by water is motion sickness, which is a very annoying and unpleasant thing. Even if you have never experienced it before, there is no guarantee that the next ferry trip will run smoothly as well. Rough seas and speedboat journeys can make even the strongest stomachs beg for mercy. Follow our recommendations above and take your medicine half an hour prior to your trip. Taking a light meal before travel also helps – more chances to get seasick with an empty stomach.
Delays and cancellations are common for ferry trips as they highly depend on weather and sea conditions. It especially concerns travel during shoulder months or off-season. Rains, mossy seas, and stormy weather may interfere with your travel itinerary – try to keep it flexible and do not plan tight flight connections even during the ‘usually-good-weather’ season.

We would have appreciated more information both from signs and the crew from where the boat did go and what boat was going to our beach. We had to ask and noone really could give us an answer at first.

The first part of the journey from Sihanoukville to Koh Rong was good then some technical issue appeared with the boat. My rating is not about it as these things happen.
My rating is based on the the communication from the crew which was very poor.
My main issue was: for some reason the crew made us to get off the boat in a different pier/stop regardless what my booking said. Instead of Long set beach we were told to get off at Koh Rong Island port, which was unnecessary (in my opinion) as the other one was closer to our hotel.

Comfortable AC boat that was spacious. Boat workers assist with luggage loading and unloading. The estimated arrival to Koh Rong Longset Beach was 12:43pm according to the ticket, but the boat left Sihanoukville ~20mins late and we only arrived in Koh Rong at 1:20pm. The ride was comfortable, just be prepared for a delay.

No explanation for 15 minute delay. Seemed they just didn’t get around to leaving. Then piled into a very small boat. No safety briefing. All the baggage up front in rain. Said no need for printed ticket then I arrived very early and staff more interested in their lunch and didn’t give me a paper ticket but everyone else seemed to have one and it was difficult for them to work out my eticket

The jetty’s don’t have hand rails or ropes to help travellers embark and disembark the boats. This I think is poor. Something to hold gives people reassurance when clambering over the side of various sized boats onto the stepped sides of the quay.

The boats tie up to the quay but lack proper gangways to leave and enter boats. I have arthritis in my knees and found it hard to get in and out of the boats at the dock.
The gangway is a wooden plank, no hand rails , no support to help travellers though the staff did their best

I don’t know why your pre booking system allows a seat selection.
We booked two seats and got on the boat only to find we could not even sit together let alone in our booked seats. Disorganized CHAOS!

Chaotic. Boat went off a half hour late and then there was no clear communication. There were two boats, one to Koh rong samloem and Koh rong !the other one just to Koh rong. One lady advised me to take the boat to the right, another man screamed at me in my face (wtf?!) to take the boat to the left. They both went to Koh rong anyways. So it didn't matter, which one I took.

Could not recommend less. Over one hour late. Other boats companies arrived and departed so no problems with weather. Overfilled the ferry no seats left and still letting people in. God forbid anything serious happened no way near enough life jackets. Arrival time stated 10am didn’t arrive until 11:30 and still had to wait for the luggage. Go with a different provider

Ferry was around 20 min late and to go in you have to walk on a piece of wood - pretty instable and one lady in front of me really panicked. Price is pretty high for Cambodia but there is no other way to go to the main land, so you have to pay. Remember to change your 12go.asia voucher for a paper ticket at the pier

The sea state was quite rough so the actual journey was a little bumpy but that's not the fault of the company. The captain did his best to keep to the timings without making the journey dangerous. I was primarily impressed that they managed to store all the luggage in the bow and they all came out dry which was a pleasant surprise. As a recommendation - if the sea is rough, sit on the inner seats inside as when the waves come over the boat, the windows leak and I did get a little wet from where the water came through but it wasn't that bad. Obviously, do not sit on the bow unless it's an incredibly calm day or you don't care about getting wet!
