Ferry to Koh Phangan
Koh Phangan has no airport — every route ends with a boat. Pick your starting point below for the exact steps, options, and prices.
From Bangkok
Koh Phangan has no airport, so every route from Bangkok ends the same way — a ferry from either Koh Samui or Surat Thani's Donsak Pier.
From Koh Samui
Lomprayah and Seatran Discovery run catamarans from Bangrak (Big Buddha) Pier to Thong Sala several times a day. On party day, skip the taxi entirely and take the Haad Rin Queen — it lands right on the party beach.
From Surat Thani
Most long-distance buses, trains, and budget flights route through Surat Thani. Raja Ferry and Seatran Ferry both run the mainland crossing from Donsak Pier — Raja is the budget option.
Book before or after the party?
Book your ferry 2–3 weeks ahead of the date — combo tickets sell out around Full Moon Party. And avoid traveling on the party day itself: boats are overcrowded and often delayed. Arrive a day early instead, and plan your return for a day or two after.
