Ko Lanta is easy
and inexpensive to reach from Phuket, Bangkok or Malaysia
. The island is serviced by passenger ferries from both
Krabi & Phi Phi and car ferries from the mainland.
Krabi is the most convenient gateway to Ko Lanta
if coming from Bangkok, and if arriving from Phuket
passage is via either Phi Phi or Krabi. Trang also
serves as a regional transit point for those coming
in from the south. Please bear in mind that if your
arrival time is late in the day, the local minibus
or public passenger ferries scheduled for Ko Lanta
may not always be available.
