Travel from Koh Jum to Koh Lanta
Koh Jum to Koh Lanta Ferry
Travelling from Koh Jum to Koh Lanta is a short hop along one of the most scenic stretches of the Andaman coast. The crossing links Koh Jum with Koh Lanta, and most travellers cover the route by speed boat, run by Andaman Wave Master and Bundhaya Speed Boat. Onboard onboard facilities keep the crossing comfortable, and the journey takes around the scheduled journey time.
When This Route Operates
The Koh Jum to Koh Lanta ferry is seasonal, not a year-round service. It runs January to April and October to December, matching the Andaman sea conditions that make small-boat crossings between the islands safe and reliable. Outside these months, the service is suspended and the booking engine on this page will show no available departures. If you are travelling outside January to April and October to December, check our Koh Lanta to Koh Jum ferry schedule for the return leg's current status, or plan your island-hopping around a longboat charter or a land-and-sea combination via Krabi, which typically continues to operate off-season. Booking a few days ahead is worthwhile even in season, since sailings can fill up around the islands' busiest weeks.
Prices and How Many Sailings to Expect
Fares on this route start from ฿750 per person one-way, with 3 scheduled during the operating season. Exact departure times vary by day and by operator, so always check the live timetable on this page before finalising your travel plans — it reflects the current schedule rather than a fixed daily time. Prices can shift slightly with demand and season, so the figure shown at checkout is the one that applies to your booking.
Departure and Arrival Points
Boats depart from the main pier serving Koh Jum and arrive at the pier for Koh Lanta. Both islands are small enough that onward transfers to your accommodation are usually short, and many resorts arrange pickup once you've confirmed your booking. If you're connecting onward from Koh Lanta, routes to other Andaman islands and to the mainland are easy to combine with this crossing.
Booking Your Koh Jum to Koh Lanta Ferry
Because sailings are limited to a handful of departures a day and pause outside January to April and October to December, we recommend booking your ticket as early as possible once your travel dates are set. Select your date above to see live availability, confirm the fare, and secure your seat on Andaman Wave Master and Bundhaya Speed Boat in just a few minutes. If your dates fall outside the operating season, use the alternative options above rather than waiting for a departure that won't run.
Frequently asked questions
What's the boarding process on the day of my trip?
At the pier named on your ticket, look for the staff of the ferry operator listed on your ticket as well. Please present your e-ticket (QR code) from your phone or other device—they’ll provide you with a sticker and/or boarding pass and direct you to your boat. Most piers have staff available to help load your luggage. In Koh Samui, staff are usually stationed at booths near the boarding area; at other locations, they’re typically near the boats, wearing their company uniforms.
Do I need to print my ferry ticket or is mobile ok?
You don't need to print your ticket. On the day of travel, simply present your e-ticket (QR code) from your phone or other device to the ferry operator staff at the pier named on your ticket—they'll give you a sticker and/or boarding pass and direct you to your boat.
If you'd prefer a printed copy, you can register as a member on our site, which allows you to easily print out your e-tickets and VAT receipts.
What happens if my ferry is cancelled due to weather?
If your trip is cancelled due to bad weather, you can choose between receiving a refund or rescheduling your journey.
Please note that refunds for bad weather are only issued if the ferry operator cancels the trip. Also keep in mind that speedboats are more likely to be cancelled than ferries, as ferries can usually operate in the rain except in extremely bad weather — though journeys may take a little longer during storms or strong winds.

What are the baggage allowances?
Your ferry e-ticket includes ferry transport, baggage fees, and handling. The free baggage allowance per person is 20–25 kg, depending on the operator. If your baggage exceeds this limit, you can pay the extra fee directly to the ferry operator in cash.
To check the baggage allowance for your specific trip, please refer to the trip details for your selected route.
Can I change the date of my ticket?
Yes, you can change your trip date as long as you provide notice at least 24, 48, or 72 hours before departure—the exact timeframe depends on the ferry operator you booked with. A small service fee of 200 baht per person applies for a second change.
Please note:
Changes must be for the same operator and boat type as your original booking.
The change applies to the entire booking; for example, if your booking is for 3 passengers, we cannot change the date or time for just one of them.
To proceed, please click the chat button to connect with one of our customer service agents, or use any of the official channels listed in the footer of our website.
Warning: Please do not send requests by replying directly to the booking confirmation email, as this is not an official support channel.
Bali Ferry :
Yes, you can. The change is required 7 days' notice prior to departure date. There is a small fee of USD $10 applied per time. Please click the chat button to speak with one of our customer service agents who will take you through the simple booking change process.
If I miss my ferry, can I take the next one?
Unfortunately, it is not possible. Tickets will expire for late arrivals and are strictly non-refundable and non-changeable.
To avoid missing your trip, please plan to arrive at the pier at least 30 minutes before departure to allow enough time for check-in and boarding.
If you do happen to miss your ferry and wish to travel as soon as possible, contact us right away, and we’ll advise you on the best available options.
