* Pay attention
The ferry times can be changed without prior notice, especially during the low season (May-November), it is recommended to update the latest ferry times in your hotel lobby at least one day before the transfer!
We do not sell ferry tickets, this is a ferry guide only. Tickets for the ferry can usually be bought in the hotel lobby, at local travel agencies at the destination from which you are taking the ferry, and of course at the pier itself. More information here.

Speed boat Transportation
Note that in addition to the large ferry, you can go from island to island by speed boat services (small racing boats). Speedboat services are provided by various companies and can be checked at local travel agencies and hotels. The speedboat prices are more expensive than the ferry service and you can also go privately from island to island with the speedboat services.
As part of the speedboat services, you can go to the full moon party in Koh Phangan in the late hours from Koh Samui and back to Koh Phangan. Of course, you can also transfer to smaller destinations where the ferries do not operate regularly, such as a transfer from Ko Phi Phi to Ko Yao Yai or Ko Yao Noi, as well as a transfer from Koh Yao Yai to destinations such as Krabi and Phuket.
