Ferries to and from Phuket
Phuket is joined to the mainland by bridge, so most people arrive by air and use its piers to reach Koh Phi Phi, Krabi, Koh Lanta and Phang Nga Bay. Big ferries leave from the east coast near Phuket Town, not from the beach resorts on the west side, so build the road transfer into your plans.
Phuket piers
Allow 45–60 minutes by road from Patong or Karon to Rassada Pier. Many tickets include a hotel pick-up, so check before booking a taxi.
