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 Railay
Railay is on the mainland, but limestone cliffs cut it off from the road, so every arrival is by boat. Ferries between Ao Nang, Phi Phi and Lanta stop off Railay and passengers transfer by longtail, so expect to wade or climb down to a small boat with your bags.
Pack light: transfers to and from the big ferry are by longtail and you carry your own luggage across the boats.
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.
