Krabi to Koh Lanta

The ferry in high season, the minivan the rest of the year. The road works all year and involves a short car-ferry crossing that queues badly in the busy months.

Klong Jilad Pier to Saladan at the north end of Lanta. The wooden boats are the slower end of that range; Ao Nang Princess and Andaman Wave are the quicker ones.

Door to door, and the only option outside the ferry season. The crossing itself is ten to fifteen minutes but loading and queuing can add half an hour in high season.

The season changes this. The morning ferry runs year round, weather permitting; the afternoon sailings are November to April only. Outside those months, plan on the road.

These times and fares come from booking agents and route aggregators, not from operator timetables. Most Thai ferry and minivan operators publish no English schedule. Treat every figure as a planning range and confirm it before you build a day around it. Last read on 20 August 2026, from Bookaway, Krabi to Koh Lanta and Thailand Travel Routes.
