Visiting Koh Mak by Ferry or Speedboat

Ferry from Trat to Koh Mak
The direct sea link between Trat and Koh Mak is a seasonal route, running from January to May and October to December. If you're searching for this crossing outside the season, boats are not operating and you won't find live availability in the booking engine — plan your visit for when the route reopens, or look at the ferry connections to Koh Chang or Koh Kood, which run more of the year, as an alternative way into the area.
During the season, the crossing takes the scheduled journey time aboard a ferry and shared minivan, with 5 departures a day and fares from ฿550 per person. Onboard facilities include onboard facilities. Travelling back the other way? Check the Koh Mak to Trat ferry schedule and fares for the return leg.
Getting to Trat before you board
Since Trat isn't on the rail network, travellers coming from Bangkok reach it by air or by road. Bangkok Airways operates direct flights to Trat Airport, with a connecting transfer arranged to the pier for the ferry departure. Travelling overland, buses and minivans run regularly from Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi Airport and the Ekkamai (Eastern) Bus Terminal, as well as from Pattaya, with services timed to connect with ferry departures at the pier. Some tickets bundle the van transfer and the boat crossing into a single through-fare, which is worth checking for when you book.
Operators and what to expect on board
Boonsiri High Speed Ferries runs this route, using a ferry and shared minivan fitted with onboard facilities for the crossing to Koh Mak. Schedules and the number of daily sailings can change with demand and weather, particularly at the start and end of the season, so it's worth checking the live timetable on this page rather than assuming a fixed departure time. Seats are limited on smaller high-speed boats, so booking ahead is recommended once the season opens, especially around Thai public holidays when demand rises.

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.
