Koh Mook to Koh Kradan: Routes, Operators and Booking Info
Traveling from Koh Mook to Koh Kradan connects two of Trang province's most photographed islands. Koh Mook is known for the Emerald Cave, while Koh Kradan draws visitors for its powder-white beach and reef snorkeling just offshore. There is no direct road or bridge between them, so every transfer is made by boat across a short stretch of the Andaman Sea.
How to Get from Koh Mook to Koh Kradan
The crossing takes around the scheduled journey time, making it an easy add-on to a wider Trang island-hopping trip rather than a full day of travel. Boats run on ferry and speed boat, and the trip is typically 4 each day, though this can shift with sea conditions and season. Departure and arrival piers vary by operator, so always confirm the exact pick-up point shown on your ticket, especially if you are coming from a resort rather than a public pier.
Operators and Fares
several operators services this route, and fares start from ฿300 per person, one way. Prices can vary between operators, boat type, and whether the ticket includes hotel transfer, so it is worth comparing options at checkout rather than assuming a single fixed rate. Many travelers combine a speedboat transfer with a longtail boat arranged through their resort for the final approach to shore, since some beaches on both islands are not served by a jetty large enough for larger boats.
What to Expect Onboard
Onboard facilities generally include onboard facilities, though the level of comfort depends on the specific boat and operator assigned to your booking. Life jackets are provided and should be worn during the crossing. Luggage space is limited on smaller speedboats, so pack light or check baggage allowances before booking if you are traveling with dive gear or larger bags.
Best Time to Travel
This route typically operates all year round, outside of which sea conditions in the Andaman can make crossings unreliable or services may pause entirely. If you are planning a trip near the edges of the season, check current schedules before booking accommodation, since a cancelled crossing can mean an unplanned extra night on either island.
Booking Your Transfer
Once you have compared operators and departure times, you can book your ferry and speed boat transfer from Koh Mook to Koh Kradan directly online, with confirmation sent immediately after payment. If you are continuing your trip in the other direction, see the Koh Kradan to Koh Mook ferry schedule for return sailings and fares.
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.

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.
