Koh Samui to Koh Phangan Ferry

Departure pier depends on the operator, so confirm whether you are leaving from Pralarn, Nathon or Bangrak. Lomprayah's own timetable runs from all three, with well over a dozen sailings a day between them, most taking about 30 minutes. Its fastest, a 14:30 speed boat from Pralarn Pier, takes about 20 minutes. Boats land at Thong Sala on Koh Phangan.

Koh Samui to Koh Phangan ferry questions

It depends on the operator: Pralarn, Nathon and Bangrak all handle departures and they are not close together. Confirm the pier before booking a taxi, because getting the wrong side of the island is a real drive.
