The port of Koh Mook Port is found on the west coast of the island, connecting visitors and the local residents to the other islands lying off the west coast of Thailand. The island is regarded as the most religious of all the islands, giving home to many ancient Muslim communities who embody a modest, peaceful life revolving around fishing. The number of tourists flocking to the island is growing, yet Koh Mook is still largely untouched by tourism - when travellers do visit the island they usually only stop at the famous ‘Emerald Cave’. Visiting the cave alone makes staying at Koh Mook worthwhile; it offers the chance to enter the cave away from the hordes of travellers from other islands. Unlike the other islands belonging to Thailand, Koh Mook doesn’t offer stunning beaches and picturesque views, however, it does provide cheap accommodation and frequent ferries to surrounding islands at very reasonable prices. Many visitors choose to stay at Koh Mook to experience a unique lifestyle in affordable resorts, whilst easily being able to visit the more popular islands. The ferry routes from the island are typically quite short, ranging from around 30 minutes to 90 minutes. There are several crossings to various islands per day, making it a simple and efficient way to get around. Despite the abundance of ferry routes, it is worth noting that sailing times can vary depending on weather conditions so it is worthwhile checking for live updates.
