About Seatran Ferry
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. Seatran Ferry 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 Seatran Ferry?
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.

Ferry was air conditioned. Journey was comfortable. We had booked 2PM Ferry but we were allowed on 1.30 PM Ferry saving our time.

Seatran office in Surat Thani easy to find. Smooth journey. Very helpful staff. Is a little cheaper (by ~100 baht) to go straight to Seatran office and ferry yourself if feeling more adventurous

Koh Samui to Bangkok during the night. No need to print the tickets. Ferry was on time and it was easy to find our transfer for the train (which was 30 min late but it happens).
The 3rd class train is really not a good idea, lights on all night, ventilators turn on & impossible to turn off, windows open so it’s pretty cold & lots of noises from outside that you can’t block. Seats are uncomfortable & 2x2 facing each others so you don’t have any way to try to sleep peacefully.
People come to sell a variety of food & drinks (coffee), it’s still better to buy beforehand tho ; but during the night they keep on coming every 20 min screaming so it’s impossible to sleep. Bathrooms uncleaned and without paper but it’s to be expected on a train.
I saw the seats on 2nd class & they did look a bit better but I think if you don’t book a bed it’s not a good idea to travel by train. Cheapest option but I won’t do it again, the night bus seats were way more comfortable & it was less noisy.

Поездка прошла безупречно. За детей на паром я билеты не оплачивала. По моему до 3-х лет бесплатно. А на в автобус место доплатила на кассе по прибытию 300 местными. Чистый паром, хочешь сиди внутри, хочешь снаружи, хочешь наверху... На борту есть мини магазин всяких закусок и кофемашина!! Не нескафе, я была в восторге. Цена практически такая же, что на берегу. Персонал приветствую, помогли с чемоданами. Seatran only. У нас случился дзинь (родители поймут отсылку) .3706464216935E+24;

I landed and there was plenty of help at the airport to find the shuttle van. The van was full but seating was tight. Still got to the destination on time. I would do it again if needed.

Just perfect. On time as promised.
Only thing is that a private taxi service from donsak is crazy expensive, cause Seatran wants to make some money.

Organisation und Ablauf waren prima. Allerdings war der klapprige Minivan mit Gepäck und Fahrgästen überfüllt und die 1,5 stündige Fahrt zur Fähre sehr ungemütlich. Die Fähre war ziemlich alt und schäbig.

Easy to check in, able to take an earlier transfer which was great. Group suddenly gone however. We were able to find them outside, but they had to rearrange the bags and make some space for us. The space was very limited and a bit cramped, so the ride was not super comfortable.

online ticket was more expensive (about 240 vs 170 baht) and the boarding process is a little complicated for prepaid tickets. I guess the only good that I got out of electronic tickets is paperless.

Hat eugentlich alles super geklappt. Jedoch der Fahrer wirkte sehr beunruhigend und suchte wärend der ganzen Fahrt irgend etwas. Auch war der Fahrer immer wieder am Handy und sprach ganz aufgeregt. Somit war die Fahrt für mich nicht entspannend.

Highly recommend Seatran, we have used them twice now and both trips were excellent. There is even a little shop on board if you need a quick bite. The trip is super quick, only about 1 1/2 hrs. I suggest sitting up stairs on the deck under the shade to get amazing views of the islands. This time we transferred to Surat Thani by bus and had no issues. Got off the ferry and walked up to the bus area and just asked around showing our ticket until we found the right one. Bus was nice and had reclining seats and AC, perfect for a quick nap. Thank you very much!!

Excellent service by a well-organized company. We booked a couple of days in advance and had no issues getting from Nakhon Si Thammarat to Koh Samui. The staff at the Seatran booking counter in Nakhon Si Thammarat airport were very friendly and helpful. They checked us in and called us a van that took us on a 1 1/2 hour drive to the ferry terminal in Don Sak, Surat Thani. We waited an hour or so to board the ferry which was 1 1/2 hours of smooth sailing. The ferry has a small shop on board and the chairs are pretty comfy. We were able to take a van from the peir to our hotel in Bo Put for 150 bhat but some people paid 70, others 200, so maybe try to negotiate. Still cheaper than Grab which was an insane 660 bhat.

The boat was on time (I think it even left early so make sure to arrive there 30 minutes before departure time) but we didn’t really know where to go as they aren’t lots of indication to tell us the way and it was a bit difficult to carry our suitcases on the ferry. (The stairs are steep and nobody was available to help us).

no directions. nobody talked or informed me where to go, where to wait, when next takeoff.
Even when I asked if everything with the ticket is fine, I got no adequate response.
PDF voucher was inadequate too.

Really straightforward. There are lots of people waiting at ferry Terminal who will make sure you get on the right bus / ferry. When you get off the ferry just walk to the car park and there someone will make sure you get on the right van.

The Seatran Staff was a wonderful help when things got a little confusing because 12go asia did not send all vouchers. And even though I was the only traveller in the van the trip was not cancelled and on time. Best experience! Thanks
