Practical tips
- Arrive 15 minutes early — public ferries fill up on weekends and can leave slightly ahead of schedule if full.
- Bring cash — ticket booths at Bali Hai and Na Ban don't accept cards. Small notes preferred.
- The last ferry from Koh Larn is 18:00. Miss it and you're on a speedboat (฿400 per person minimum charter for solo) or staying overnight.
- Speedboat operators quote per-boat; solo travelers pay the full boat rate unless you find others to share.
- Motion-sick? Sit at the back of the public ferry — less pitching. Speedboats are consistently the roughest ride.
- Bring a waterproof bag for the speedboat — spray on choppy days will soak whatever's on the outside deck.
