Ferry Tickets to Koh Tao & Koh Phangan

Lomprayah and Seatran speed-ferries at official rates, plus pier transfers if needed.

Lomprayah catamaran ferry departing Koh Samui

Inter-island ferry tickets between Samui, Phangan, and Tao at the official rate. We don't add a markup — we book through Lomprayah's and Seatran's operator portals so you get a guaranteed seat without queuing at the pier. Optional pier transfer for hotels in Lamai/Chaweng adds ฿200-300.

Lomprayah runs the most popular speed-catamaran route. Maenam to Thong Sala (Phangan) is 35 minutes; Maenam to Mae Haad (Koh Tao) is 1h 45min. The catamaran is air-conditioned, has bench seating with footrests, a small snack bar, and Wi-Fi on the Tao route.

Seatran runs from Bangrak pier (north Samui) to Phangan and Tao on a slightly larger conventional ferry — 50 min to Phangan, 2h 30min to Tao. Cheaper by ฿50-100 each way, slightly more stable in rough seas.

If you're heading to Koh Tao for diving, the morning ferries (08:00 Lomprayah, 08:00 Seatran) are essential — afternoon arrivals miss the half-day dive trips. For Phangan day-trips, any ferry works.

Pier transfer add-on: hotels in Bophut/Maenam are walking distance from Maenam pier (no transfer needed). Hotels in Chaweng/Lamai add ฿200-300 for a Toyota Hiace pickup. We arrange the pickup so it lands at the pier 30 min before departure.

Questions guests ask

Why go through Legitour instead of buying at the pier?

Same price, but you're guaranteed a seat in high season. Pier sales sometimes hit capacity — December and Full Moon nights especially. We buy through the official Lomprayah operator portal.

Lomprayah vs Seatran — which?

Lomprayah's catamaran is faster (35 min to Phangan vs 50 min) and runs on time. Seatran is bigger, calmer in rough seas, and slightly cheaper. We recommend Lomprayah unless seasickness is a concern.

Can you book the return?
