Koh Phangan Ferry Port
All scheduled ferry services from Koh Samui to Koh Phangan (with the exception of the Haad Rin Queen and Thong Nai Pan Express) terminate in Thong Sala. There are two piers close together in Thong Sala. Koh Phangan Ferry Port is the arrival point for Raja Ferry, Seatran Discovery and Lomprayah ferries. Songserm ferries arrive at a different pier a short distance away.

From the main ferry pier in Thong Sala there are plenty of shared or private taxis to all points on the island. If you are going to one of the more popular destinations, such as Haad Rin, Thong Nai Pan or Haad Yao then you are likely to able to join other people in a taxi and travel for around 300 to 400 THB per person depending on your final destination on the island. If you are going somewhere less popular then you need either to wait for other people going the same way to turn up or pay more money to hire the whole taxi.
