Coming into Mae Haad Pier, a few things will catch your eye; the beautiful natural collection of rocks, set against the palm-laced forested mountainous terrain almost-but-not-quite hiding the many small wooden chalets dotted around, the little boats scuttling to and fro from both sleepy bays and excellent little coves. Koh Tao is South-East Asia's answer to a Carribbean Isle for sure. With Koh Tao's reputation for being a glorious tropical diving centre of the world, you'll see laced along the Mae Haad Pier area an interesting and colourful assortment of diving/tour boats, but there's always a prime docking point for our ferries to make it easy for your embarkation/debarkation. Once on dry land, there's the usual assortment of restaurants, bars, 7-11s and a huge amount of dive shops (yep, shop around till you find the one for you!). Mae Haad itself is one of the busiest areas of Koh Tao, so you'll not be lacking for island resources. Stock up on your adventure gear and 
Thong Sala Pier is the kind of perfectly functional island pier you'd expect an island-to-island ferry to arrive at. Located on the southwest of Koh Phangan, it's just 45 minutes away from Koh Samui. You'll notice the island's forested-mountainous terrain as you draw near. All of our PhuketFerry.com ferries will arrive here, and the docking procedure is about as straightforward as it gets.

Maybe you can grab a barbequed corn-on-the-cob for the ride! Thong Sala itself is the main town of Koh Phangan, and as such, you'll find some banks, currency exchangers, local pubs, and a nice few restaurants. Many backpackers will stay around here for a night or two because it's a nice place, its close to the pier, and it's the absolute best connecting point to anywhere else on the island - yep, all 
Nathon Pier is Samui Island's main ferry port and serves as the key arrival/departure point for Samui travelers. Situated in the northwest of Samui, tourists will be able to find trips from Nathon Pier to any of the amazing surrounding islands such as Koh Phangan and the local dive capital, Koh Tao. Nathon Pier itself is a really sturdy passenger zone, which is able to accommodate the hundreds of people hopping on and off ferries at any given time. Many times per day, great big car ferries dock and depart with ease, as well as the multiple ocean-going tour and transfer ferries and boats. Local facilities are good; you will find a variety of hotels, banks, restaurants, tour desks and shops just over the road past the pier entrance. Taxi's will be awaiting you with eager anticipation but be aware that although they may have meters, they will not likely be using them and it is wise to haggle them down to a more reasonable price than is first quoted! The road system's a 
Located 20 kilometers to the west of the City Centre, Surat Thani International Airport is the most well-known airport among travelers seeking to reach the Gulf of Thailand.
