Good to know before you go

Leaving Koh Lipe

Koh Lipe sits at the edge of Tarutao National Marine Park, close to the Malaysian border. It has no deep-water pier: in high season boats stop at the floating pier off Pattaya Beach or at Bundhaya, and in low season they land at Sunrise Beach.

A Tarutao National Park fee is collected on arrival, so carry baht. Boats to Langkawi involve Thai exit immigration on Lipe.

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.
