When to book
Book the boat when your flight is fixed
- Pick a boat that leaves after your “land by” time with room to spare: if your flight is late, a boat you booked may leave without you.
- In December, January and around holidays, boats on popular Andaman Coast routes can sell out: book a day or more ahead.
- Booking the car and the boat separately? Book the car for your landing time, and the boat with the buffer above.
Season and sea
The southwest monsoon brings rougher seas from roughly May to October. Several island-hopping speedboats, especially in the far south around Koh Lipe and the Trang islands, run only in the high season, roughly November to April.
Good to know
- The car ferry from Ban Hua Hin to Koh Lanta Noi takes about 20 minutes, runs daily 05:00–24:00 and leaves when it is full; the Siri Lanta Bridge links Koh Lanta Noi to Koh Lanta Yai (TAT).
- Minivans from Krabi bus terminal to Koh Lanta use this ferry: hourly from 06:00 to 16:00, 1h 30m – 2h, with drop-off at hotels on Lanta (TAT).
- Speedboats from Phuket, Phi Phi and Ao Nang arrive at Saladan Pier, not at the car-ferry pier.
