Getting to Koh Samet, travelers have a choice between speedboats and ferries for the final leg from the mainland to the island. Here’s a quick comparison:

  • Speedboats offer the fastest transfer, taking about 15 minutes to reach Nadan Pier on Koh Samet. This option is ideal for those looking to maximize their time on the island, costing around THB 199 per adult. Speedboats provide a quick and thrilling ride across the water.
  • Ferries, on the other hand, provide a more leisurely journey of about 40 to 50 minutes, allowing travelers to enjoy the scenic views of the sea at a more relaxed pace. With fares starting from THB 99, ferries are a more budget-friendly option compared to speedboats.

The price difference between the two options is roughly 100 THB, with the time savings offered by speedboats being approximately 30 minutes. This makes speedboats a preferable choice for those prioritizing speed and convenience, while ferries are suited for travelers looking for a cost-effective and less bumpy ride to Koh Samet.
