On board the Pattaya to Koh Larn ferry: seats, cabins and luggage

The ship makes the difference on this route: the conventional ferry has more space, open decks and a steadier ride; the high-speed boat has airline seating and gets you there faster. Children have their own fares, luggage travels free within limits, and pets are accepted on many ships in carriers or kennels.

• Children's fares by age; infants typically free
• Pets accepted on many ships in carriers or kennels - tell us if one is travelling
• Seats: economy, airline-style, lounge and business on the fast boats; deck seats on the slow ferries
• Cabins with beds and showers on overnight sailings - two to four berths

Things to do in Koh Larn after the ferry

Koh Larn is the Coral Island off Pattaya, a short boat ride away, with clear water and several beaches. Arriving by sea puts you in the middle of it: Tawaen Beach, Samae Beach, Nual Beach and snorkelling are all reachable from Na Baan pier or Tawaen pier, Koh Larn.

We offer tours and transfers in Koh Larn as well as the ferry ticket - one conversation, one plan for the whole trip.

Best time to take the ferry from Pattaya to Koh Larn

For the ferry itself, late spring and early autumn bring calm seas, full timetables and reasonable fares; July and August are the busiest and the most expensive, and the windiest weeks can cancel the fast boats. Winter schedules are thinner on many crossings, so we look up before you plan.

Ferry or flight from Pattaya to Koh Larn?

Ferry versus plane between Pattaya and Koh Larn comes down to time, luggage and the view: the ferry has the deck, the luggage and the town-centre arrival; the plane has speed. On this route the ferry is the option Haqqi Tours recommends first for families and anyone with a car.

Return ferry from Koh Larn to Pattaya

We book the return crossing from Koh Larn to Pattaya just as easily, usually on the same confirmation. Round-trip fares and open returns are cheaper on many operators, so booking both directions together saves money. Let us know the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.

How much does the ferry from Pattaya to Koh Larn cost?

Ferry prices from Pattaya to Koh Larn move with the season and the vessel: the same crossing can cost a fraction on the conventional ferry in April of what the high-speed boat costs on an August weekend. Rather than quote a figure that will be wrong next week, we verify the fare for the day you want to sail and send it through WhatsApp before you decide.

The figure we send is the total: passengers, seats or cabin and port fees. If a slower sailing an hour later is cheaper, we say so; on this route the conventional ferry is often the best value for a family.

Cheapest ferry ticket from Pattaya to Koh Larn: how to pay less

The cheapest ferry ticket from Pattaya to Koh Larn is normally on the conventional ferry, booked early, on a weekday outside the peak weeks. These are the rules our booking desk applies:

• Compare operators - on this route the cheapest company changes with the date
• Travel light - some fast boats limit luggage per passenger
• Book the return with the outbound - open returns and round-trip fares are cheaper on many operators
• Ask about children's, student and resident fares, and about vehicle offers outside high season
• Choose the conventional ferry over the high-speed boat when time allows - it is cheaper, steadier and frequently more scenic
• Book early for July, August, Easter and holiday weekends, when sailings sell out and fares rise

We answer "what is the cheapest way to get from Pattaya to Koh Larn by ferry?" many times a day; the answer for your date comes back in the WhatsApp chat with the booking ready to confirm.

Timetable and season of the Pattaya to Koh Larn ferry

The Pattaya to Koh Larn ferry timetable is seasonal: high summer brings the fullest schedule and the earliest sell-outs; spring and autumn have fewer boats and better fares; winter runs a reduced service on many crossings. The crossing itself takes about 45 minutes. Tell us the day and we send the sailings, and we flag the ones most exposed to a cancellation in bad weather.

Sea conditions matter on this route: strong winds can delay or cancel high-speed boats while the conventional ferries keep sailing. When the forecast is poor we tell you and, if you prefer, book the steadier vessel.

Departure: Bali Hai Pier, Pattaya

Your crossing starts at Bali Hai Pier, Pattaya. Large ports have several gates and the boarding gate is announced on the boards and on the ticket; we send the gate and the check-in time with your confirmation. There is no train worth using from either airport: Suvarnabhumi and U-Tapao have coaches and shared minivans to Pattaya bus stations that then need a baht bus or taxi to the hotel, which can take twice as long with luggage; a private car goes straight to the hotel door in roughly 1.5 to 2 hours from Bangkok, or about 45 minutes to 1 hour from U-Tapao.

• Haqqi Tours can provide a private transfer from your hotel in Pattaya to the port on request
• Ask us which gate or terminal your sailing uses - big ports have several
• Foot passengers: at the port 45-60 minutes before departure
• Keep the e-ticket and the ID or passport used for booking together

Arrival: Na Baan pier or Tawaen pier, Koh Larn

Arrival is at Na Baan pier or Tawaen pier, Koh Larn. Koh Larn is the Coral Island off Pattaya, a short boat ride away, with clear water and several beaches. We can have a Haqqi Tours driver at the pier with your name, or tell you the best way to your hotel by bus or taxi. If you brought the car, the road out of the port is signposted for the main routes.

Many travellers continue from Koh Larn to another island or city. We provide those tickets too, so one WhatsApp conversation covers the whole itinerary.
