Good to know before you go

Leaving Koh Ngai

Koh Ngai (also written Koh Hai) is a small island with a handful of resorts along one long beach and very clear water. Boats drop guests at resort piers or on the beach.

Tell the boat crew the name of your resort when you board so they drop you in the right place.

Arriving in Krabi

Krabi Town sits on a river estuary and is the province’s transport base, with an airport, a bus terminal and the main ferry port. Ferries to Koh Phi Phi and Koh Lanta leave from Klong Jilad, a few minutes from town, while speedboats use smaller piers along the coast.

If your ticket says “Krabi”, check whether the boat leaves from Klong Jilad or from Ao Nang. They are 30 minutes apart by road.

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.
