Koh Jum to Phang Nga: Ferry and Onward Transfer
Traveling from Koh Jum to Phang Nga means combining a boat crossing with a road transfer, since Koh Jum has no bridge or airport connecting it to the mainland. This route operates seasonally, running only during January to May and November to December. Outside these months the booking engine will show no available departures — this is expected, not an error. If you're planning a trip in the low season, consider a Krabi to Phang Nga transfer or a Phuket to Phang Nga connection instead, both of which run on a more year-round basis.
How the Koh Jum–Phang Nga Transfer Works
Because Koh Jum is an island, the journey does not begin with a bus leaving from the island itself. Instead, Bundhaya Speed Boat runs a longtail or speedboat (speed boat) from Koh Jum's pier across to the mainland, where passengers connect to a road vehicle for the onward leg to Phang Nga. This combined boat-and-land transfer is booked as a single ticket, so you don't need to arrange the two legs separately. The full journey takes around the scheduled journey time, though actual times can shift with sea conditions and mainland traffic, so always check the times shown at booking.
Schedule, Frequency and Pricing
During January to May and November to December, Bundhaya Speed Boat operates 2 on this route. Fares start from ฿1,200 per person, with the final price depending on the transfer type and any add-ons you select. Onboard and transfer facilities include onboard facilities. As with all boat-inclusive transfers in the region, schedules can be adjusted at short notice for weather, so it's worth booking with some flexibility in your onward plans.
Nearby Islands and Alternative Connections
Koh Jum sits between Krabi and Koh Lanta, and many travelers combine this transfer with a wider island-hopping itinerary. If Phang Nga isn't your only stop, routes connecting Koh Jum to Koh Lanta or Koh Jum to Krabi are useful for extending your trip, while Phuket to Koh Jum ferry options serve travelers arriving from the north. These nearby hubs are worth checking if your dates fall outside January to May and November to December, since they may offer more frequent, year-round service.

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.

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.
