Boat from Koh Phayam to Koh Phra Thong
Bruno645 · 2026-08-19
Hi everyone,
After a stay on Koh Phayam this coming November, I’d like to spend 2 or 3 days on Koh Phra Thong before heading further south.
Do you think it’s doable to leave Koh Phayam early enough to catch the 10 AM boat from Khura Buri to Koh Phra Thong? The next one isn’t until 4 PM, which would cost me a whole day.
Thanks

Hi there,
There are 2 official schedules as you mentioned, but there are also boats owned by hotels that can come pick you up. I don’t know which hotel you booked? Two years ago, we stayed at Moken Eco Village, and they came to pick us up at the pier.

Thanks for your quick reply, Philippe.
We’ll also be staying at Moken Eco Village. But I’ve read that the boats sent by hotels are really expensive compared to the 2 official boats that run daily.
I need to know how long it’ll take to leave my hotel in Koh Phayam, take a private car (taxi, Grab, etc.) to get to the departure port for Koh Phra Thong (Khura Buri).
If anyone’s done the same route...
