Departing Koh Phi Phi
Arriving Railay
Our boats depart from Tonsai Pier on Koh Phi Phi, the island's main passenger landing. The crossing to Railay takes around 30 minutes on the fastest service — a short hop across open water with good views of the limestone karsts that define this stretch of the Andaman coast. With around 17 departures a day, scheduling around your plans on Phi Phi is easy.
Arriving at Railay
All boats arrive directly at Railay's beach landing — there are no roads in, so the boat is the only way to reach the peninsula. Fares start from THB 715, and several operators sail this route through the day, with most morning departures clustering around 10:00–12:30.
The calmest sea conditions are typically in the morning and through the dry season from November to April. Outside of that window, departures still run but expect choppier water and check with us if you're travelling in the shoulder months. Keep a dry bag for your luggage if you're crossing during the wet season.
