About Koh Yao Sun Smile
To get to the most picturesque islands you cannot avoid taking a ferry. Some destinations are served by larger and more stable car ferries, others are connected by smaller but faster high speedboats or catamarans. If you easily get seasick, avoid travelling by catamaran which rides the waves when the sea is rough – rather opt for a high speed boat as it cuts the water what results in a less rock-and-rolling trip. Also, taking a seat on an upper open-air deck may help weather high waves. Koh Yao Sun Smile offers online tickets for ferry trips – it is not even necessary to pop in at their office to buy one.

What are the Ferry Classes & Prices of Koh Yao Sun Smile?
The rule of thumb is the faster the boat, the higher the price is. Before booking, decide whether you need an express service or slower options are also acceptable. The rates for the latter are much more affordable. Yet the difference in the travel time may be really huge, so always check how long the ferry trip takes before you book your ticket. Also, the availability of some classes can be limited and always requires advanced booking. Always remember to check the pier your boat leaves from and docks at to choose the most convenient one for your onward trip and read other travellers' reviews.
Pros & Cons of Ferry Travel
Pros of Ferry Travel
- To take a ship is the only way to reach some of the islands. And in many cases – some of the most beautiful, postcard and paradise islands you have always wished to go!
- Different ticket classes are often available so you will be able to choose the fare, level of comfort, travel time, and schedule which suits you best.
- Book online to save time – on many routes, booking in advance is an absolute must. In the first place, it concerns longer trips, trips on busy periods like national holidays, long weekends or high season. It is a good idea to book at least several days prior to your travel date if your route is served by a limited number of trips per day, too.
- Travelling by ferry is fun. It is always nice to have a look at the places you have visited from another angle – well, in this case – from water. Almost any destination looks terrific from water and you will have a great opportunity to take brilliant pictures.
Cons of Ferry Travel
- Getting seasick is the major concern for ferry travellers. The longer is the trip and the rougher the sea is, the more chances to feel your stomach protesting. To make your trip more enjoyable, take the medicine half an hour before your trip and follow our recommendations from above.
- Ferry trips are highly weather dependent. It means that on rainy days departures can be delayed or even cancelled. It is not an uncommon thing to close the ferry connections even with bigger islands during stormy weather for several days. It means you should keep this possibility in mind if your ferry trip connects with a flight – chances to get to the mainland later than expected can be high during certain periods.

The whole trip was really well planned. We booked last minute the night before and the booking had been received by the following morning. Clear instructions were given as to check in time and meeting points. Bags were all loaded and unloaded at the right destination and the crew were really helpful.

Driver was on time and it was a plea sent drive. We also left a bag with valuable items in the car and we were able to contact Grab and the driver contacted us to return the items. Excellent service by Grab and the driver.

The van was an hour late and then we waited quite awhile for a boat. Some people got to go earlier. The WhatsApp person was VERY helpful though so it wasn't nearly as stressful as it could have been. The van was very fancy.

The boat was delayed, was told to wait in an area and no one provided info while we were waiting. We approached the ticket office and quickly escorted to the boat, we almost missed had we not asked.

The boat got stuck on the sand while leaving the pier. All the people in the back seats got dirt on their backs (black sand). After several tries and 30 minutes late we managed to arrive to Phi phi island.

Friendly staff and leaving on time. So overall good. But too many people in the boat.

Ferry Speedboat, Koh Yao Sun Smile, Nov 20, 2023
I booked only an hour before and therefore wasn’t collected (totally understandable). They sorted everything no problem and put me on the ferry that same day and refunded the difference. For this I have to give a good review.

Pick-up fine, decent boat. However, boat was too full, zero life jackets to be seen. But we didn’t die so there’s that.

If you get motion sick bring a puke bag with you. Extremely bumpy ride. At first everyone was laughing at how comically bumpy it was, but half way through everyone felt and looked miserable. We did get there though so that's something.

Ferry Speedboat, Koh Yao Sun Smile, Sep 16, 2023
The check-in was a bit unconventional but fast, the pier was just a sand beach und we didn’t really get much information from the operator. But he had a good overview and everybody arrived where they were supposed to be - on time.
It started to heavily rain and “storm” while the crossing and the captain slowed down and drove very carefully, so we always felt safe.
The boat was in great condition, not crowded and we even received water for the just 40min drive. On board the operator gave us some
Information what island we were seeing and clearly told everybody who needs to leave where, since we had 3 stops in total (Yao Noi, Yao Yai and Phuket)

Pickup on time. 1 luggage per person. Must be able to carry the rest. Transfer to hotel is not offered but taxi is usually waiting at pier. Confirm price with taxi before getting on. It has been 100 baht historically and with my ride. Do not sit in the back if it looks rainy. Sit in the middle if prone to motion sickness. Very stable. Expect boat to leave pier 10-15 minute late as they must de-board passengers.
