Good to know before you go
Leaving Koh Yao Yai
Koh Yao Yai is the larger and quieter of the two Yao islands, with rubber plantations, Muslim fishing villages and views of the Phang Nga Bay karsts. Boats come from Phuket’s east coast and from the Krabi side.
The island is big and has little public transport. Arrange a transfer or rent a scooter at the pier.
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.
