Good to know before you go

Leaving Koh Yao Noi

Koh Yao Noi is a small island known for homestays, cycling and kayaking among the limestone islets of Phang Nga Bay. Most boats arrive at Manoh Pier in the south.

The last boats back to Phuket leave mid-afternoon. Check the time if you are connecting to a flight.

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.
