Koh Phangan to Koh Tao: a simple ferry checklist
Check the sailing, pier and transfer as one plan before moving between islands.
Start with your travel date
Lomprayah includes Koh Phangan and Koh Tao in its island route network. Search your date with the operator rather than treating an old travel-blog timetable as the current schedule. Make sure you are looking at the correct direction.
Check the practical details
Confirm the departure pier, check-in requirement and baggage conditions shown for your ticket. Work out how you will reach that pier from your accommodation. If you are travelling with another person, keep both ticket details together and check that you have booked the same departure.
Make the arrival easy
Keep your accommodation name and contact details available offline. Let your host know the sailing you expect to take, then update them if the operator changes it. Leave space in your first afternoon for the journey itself. This guide deliberately sends you to the operator for live departure times and fares.

This opens 12Go. Select your travel date, passenger count and exact departure and arrival points. Check which journey legs the ticket includes and the missed-connection terms. Separately purchased tickets do not establish a protected connection. Tao.tours does not display live fares, seat availability or confirmed service here.
