Good to know before you go
Leaving Ao Nang
Ao Nang is the busiest beach town on the Krabi coast and the easiest place to stay if you want boats to Railay, Koh Phi Phi and the Hong islands. Ferries leave from Nopparat Thara Pier at the western end of the beach, and longtail boats to Railay leave straight from the sand.
Most Ao Nang tickets include a free shared pick-up from your hotel to Nopparat Thara. Be in the lobby 30 minutes before the time on the ticket.
Arriving in 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.
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.
Weather and season
Best November to April, when the sea is calm. From May to October the south-west monsoon brings swells; big ferries keep running but many speedboat island-hops stop.
