Koh Jum to Trang | Booking & Travel Guide
How to get from Koh Jum to Trang
Koh Jum to Trang Ferry
Traveling between Koh Jum and Trang connects the quiet, palm-covered island of Koh Jum with the mainland gateway of Trang, on Thailand's Andaman coast. This route is a common link for travelers moving between the Krabi island chain and Trang's pier towns, and it is served by Bundhaya Speed Boat using speed boat.
Seasonal route: check before you plan
This is a seasonal ferry route, running only during January to May and November to December. Outside these months, the Andaman Sea crossing is too rough for safe passage and no boats operate on this link. If you are searching outside the active season, the booking engine on this page will show no departures — that is expected, not an error. Consider Krabi Town or Koh Lanta as year-round mainland-to-island alternatives, or check back closer to January to May and November to December when sailings resume.
Journey time, price, and schedule
The crossing takes around the scheduled journey time, with 1 available during the active season. Fares start from ฿1,520 per person; exact pricing depends on the operator, boat class, and how close to departure you book, so always confirm the current fare and departure time shown at checkout before finalizing your trip. Onboard facilities include onboard facilities.
Departure and arrival points
Boats depart from Koh Jum's main pier and arrive at Trang's ferry terminal (or the reverse, depending on direction). Piers on this route can be a short transfer from your accommodation, so it's worth allowing extra time to reach the departure point, particularly on Koh Jum where pier access can depend on tides.
Nearby islands and connecting routes
Koh Jum sits along a busy stretch of the Andaman coast, and many travelers combine this crossing with stops at neighboring islands. Koh Lanta, just south of Koh Jum, is a popular add-on with more frequent year-round ferry links. Further south, Koh Mook and Koh Ngai are known for their beaches and are often reached via connecting boats through Trang or Krabi. If your itinerary includes any of these islands, it's worth checking connecting schedules alongside this route, since combined bookings can save a transfer.
Booking this route
Seats on Bundhaya Speed Boat's speed boat can be booked directly through this page for travel during January to May and November to December. If you're planning the return leg, see the Trang to Koh Jum ferry schedule for departures in the opposite direction. For island-hopping plans, you may also want to check the Koh Jum to Koh Lanta ferry, the Trang to Koh Mook ferry, or the Trang to Koh Ngai ferry to complete a wider Andaman itinerary.
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.
To arrange your refund or new travel date, please click the refund button in your personal Liva account.
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.

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.
