Phang Nga to Koh Jum Ferry
Travelling from Phang Nga to Koh Jum connects the Phang Nga mainland with Koh Jum, a quiet island in the Krabi archipelago that sits between the better-known islands of Koh Lanta and Koh Phi Phi. The crossing is a popular option for travellers who want to reach Koh Jum without routing through Krabi Town or Ao Nang first.
This route only operates during January to May and November to December. Outside these months there are no scheduled sailings between Phang Nga and Koh Jum, and the booking engine on this page will not show departures. If you are travelling outside the operating season, check the Koh Jum to Phang Nga ferry page for the return schedule, or look at alternative connections via Krabi to Koh Jum or Koh Lanta to Koh Jum, which run on different seasonal patterns and may still be available.
Journey details
The crossing is operated by Bundhaya Speed Boat using speed boat, with a typical journey time of the scheduled journey time. During the operating season there are 4 to choose from, so it's worth comparing times before booking to fit the rest of your itinerary, especially if you're connecting onward to Koh Phi Phi or back to the mainland at Krabi.
Prices and what's included
Fares on this route start from ฿1,200 per person. Onboard facilities include onboard facilities, though exact amenities can vary slightly depending on the vessel assigned on the day. Prices and departure times are shown live during checkout, so the figures you see when booking reflect current availability rather than a fixed rate.
Departure and arrival points
Departures leave from the pier serving Phang Nga province, the mainland gateway most travellers use before heading out to the islands of the Andaman coast. On arrival, boats dock at Koh Jum's pier, a short transfer from the island's beaches on the west coast. Koh Jum has no airport and limited public transport, so many visitors treat this ferry as the final leg of a longer trip that starts in Phuket, Krabi, or Phang Nga town itself. If your plans include island-hopping, routes onward to Koh Phi Phi or back toward Krabi are worth checking alongside this one.
Booking this route
Because sailings are seasonal and departures are limited per day, booking ahead is recommended, particularly around holidays when island travel in this part of Thailand gets busy.

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.

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.
