Map & Transportation
Via Chumphon…
Getting to Chumphon from Bangkok is very simple either by
train or a comfortable VIP bus. Both options can easily be
booked in Bangkok or online. Again Lomprayah Catamaran offers
two Koh Tao trips to Koh Tao and Seatran Discovery offers one
trip to Chumphon daily and the price includes the transfer to
Koh Tao.
Via Suratthani_
Travelers from Phuket & Krabi typically pass through
Suratthani, which is a long and at times uncomfortable journey
in a minibus. Boat options are very limited and the only direct
boat is a little dubious even at the best of times. This night
boat leaves Suratthani every night at 11 pm. We do not recommend
coming to Koh Tao (Map) this route but recommend you fly from
either Phuket or Krabi directly to Koh Samui.
