Chumphon (Lomprayah Pier) Guide

Chumphon (Lomprayah Pier) Ferry Port

Found on the south east coast of Thailand, Chumphon Port lies in the Chumphon Province of the Mueang Chumphon District. Chumphon Port has remained relatively unspoilt by Thailand’s mass tourism, and still boasts pristine sand beaches, unexplored caves and picturesque walking trails. There are three ferry routes coming out of Chumphon port, providing the crossing to some of Thailand’s most southerly islands. The routes to Koh Phangan, Koh Tao and Koh Samui all run once a day, usually departing Chumphon Port in the early hours of the morning. The sailing to Koh Tao lasts around 2 hours 30 minutes, whilst the crossings to Koh Samui and Koh Phangan take around twice the time. There are no catering facilities at the port or on board the vessel, so it may be advised that passengers bring their own food and drink.


Koh Phangan (Thong Sala Pier) Guide

Koh Phangan (Thong Sala Pier) Ferry Port

With the opening of Koh Phangan Airport yet to be unveiled, ferry travel is considered the best way to reach Koh Phangan, with hundreds of thousands each year making the crossing from nearby islands and popular parts of the Thailand mainland. The port is located on the southwest coast of the island and is known locally as Thong Sala Pier; it is generally very busy due to the popularity of the island and its close proximity to the famous Ban Had Rin beach. There are several crossings per day and each ferry boat typically carries around 180-300 people each time, creating a lively buzz around the area. The island is nearly always swarmed with backpackers and has become a notorious holiday destination for young travellers looking to discover Thailand’s party scene. Some regard the island’s reputation as the home of full moon parties, especially the infamous nights at Hat Rin, as a misconception distracting uninformed visitors from the hidden gems Koh Phangan has to offer. In an effort to attract a more upmarket clientele, areas such as Hat Thong Nai Pan Noi boast extravagant resorts with high quality restaurants and luxurious accommodation. For transport to and from the port, the only official taxi service is via songthaew (a pick-up truck type vehicle shared with other passengers) that are generally very reasonably priced. Many motorcyclists will offer tourists a discounted price but they are considered dangerous, unreliable and can also cause a fine from the police, so are best to be avoided.
