Ferry and Transfer from Koh Phangan to Hua Hin

There is no direct boat link between Phangan Island and Hua Hin, so the Koh Phangan to Hua Hin journey is made up of two connected legs: a ferry crossing to the mainland, followed by an overland transfer up the Gulf coast to Hua Hin. Booking a combined ferry-and-transfer ticket is the simplest way to cover the route, since it lets you check in once on Koh Phangan and be dropped off in Hua Hin without arranging each leg separately.

How the route works

The crossing starts at the pier on Koh Phangan and calls at Koh Tao before continuing to Chumphon, the mainland gateway town used for this route. From Chumphon, passengers transfer onto a coach or van for the road journey to Hua Hin.

This ferry-and-road combination is operated by Lomprayah High Speed Ferries Co., Ltd., using a bus and ferry for the sea crossing; onboard facilities include onboard facilities. Because the whole trip is sold as one through-ticket, the same booking covers both the boat and the connecting vehicle, so you don't need to buy a separate onward fare in Chumphon.

Where you depart and arrive

Departure is from the ferry pier on Koh Phangan, a short taxi or songthaew ride from Thong Sala, Haad Rin and the island's west-coast beaches. After the stop at Koh Tao and the sea leg to Chumphon, the road transfer continues north to Hua Hin, the beach town on the western shore of the Gulf of Thailand known for its night market, beachfront and nearby national parks. Exact pier and drop-off points are confirmed on your ticket.

Journey time, schedule and price

Allow around about 1 minutes in total for the ferry and transfer combined, with 2 available on this route during all year round. Exact departure and arrival times vary by operator and by day, so always check the specific sailing and transfer times shown at checkout before you travel.

Fares for the Koh Phangan to Hua Hin combination start from ฿1,350, with the final price depending on the date and departure time you select.

What to expect on the day

Because this is a combined ticket, most of the journey is spent on the boat and then on the connecting road vehicle, with a changeover in Chumphon. Bring water, motion-sickness tablets if you need them, and a light layer for air-conditioned vehicles. Luggage is normally carried with you and loaded onto the transfer at Chumphon, so keep valuables and travel documents in a small bag you can hold.

Booking your Koh Phangan to Hua Hin ticket

Seats and transfer vans can fill up on this route, particularly around Thai public holidays, so booking your Koh Phangan to Hua Hin ferry and transfer ticket in advance is worth doing once your travel dates are fixed. Have your passport details ready at checkout, and arrive at the Koh Phangan pier with enough time to check in before the scheduled departure, since the connecting transfer to Hua Hin is timed around the ferry's arrival in Chumphon.

FAQ

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.

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.
