Piers at both ends
Where to go on the day, and what to expect when you land.
Pattaya: South Pattaya, at the end of Walking Street. Ferries and speedboats to Koh Larn.

Koh Larn: Lands you right on the island’s busiest beach.
Piers named by the operators for this route: CTG Bali Hai Pier and Bali Hai Pier → Na Baan Pier and Naban Pier.
Getting to Bali Hai Pier
Bali Hai Pier is at the southern end of Pattaya Beach Road, past Walking Street. Baht buses (songthaews) run along Beach Road and will drop you near the pier entrance. Ferries board from the long jetty; check the boat’s destination sign (Na Ban or Tawaen) before you get on.
Getting around Koh Larn
Songthaews wait at Na Ban pier to take you to the beaches: Tawaen, Samae, Nual, Tien and Ta Yai. Scooters are for hire, but the hills are steep and accidents with tourists are common. Ride only if you are experienced, and wear a helmet.
Coming back
Public ferries back to Pattaya stop in the late afternoon or early evening, with the last boats leaving Na Ban and Tawaen at different times. Check the last departure from your beach when you arrive. Speedboats can be chartered later, at a higher price.
Weather and season
Driest from November to April. Short crossings like Pattaya–Koh Larn run all year; the long-distance island-hopping speedboats are mostly seasonal.
