Good to know before you go
Leaving Koh Phangan
Koh Phangan is a big, hilly island between Samui and Tao. It is known for the Full Moon Party at Haad Rin, but most of the island is quiet beaches and jungle. Nearly every ferry docks at Thong Sala on the west coast.
Around Full Moon Party dates, boats from Samui sell out and run extra late sailings. Book ahead and keep your return ticket handy.
Arriving in Donsak
Donsak is a small coastal town east of Surat Thani with the car-ferry terminals for Koh Samui and Koh Phangan. Raja Ferry and Seatran run large vehicle ferries roughly every hour in daytime.
Driving a hire car? Raja and Seatran take vehicles. Check your rental terms allow the car on a ferry.
Weather and season
Weather runs to a different clock from the Andaman: the Gulf is usually calmest from February to August. Expect rain and rougher crossings from October to December.
