Phuket to Phi Phi Island Ferry: Schedules, Prices & Tickets (2025+)

Longtail boats moored on turquoise shallows below towering limestone cliffs, Maya Bay-style Thai island beach
Phi Phi Island is known for its natural beauty, with the stunning turquoise waters, limestone cliffs, and the white sandy beaches. Phi Phi is considered to be one of the most beautiful islands in the world.

Koh Phi Phi is a group of six islands yet, technically there are only two islands that people mostly visit “Phi Phi Don” which is the bigger and most popular and “ Phi Phi Leh” it’s smaller than Phi Phi Don and only accessible by fishing boats or by tours.

Phi Phi Don is famous for the variety of seafood restaurants on the beach, coffee shops, reggae bars, and the vibrant nightlife. You can also find plenty of shops to buy clothes and unique souvenirs from.

There are no motorcycles on the island, unlike most of Thailand, renting a motorcycle on Phi Phi is impossible since the only mode of transportation on the island is on foot. The island isn’t big and you will find how easy and convenient it is to walk around the island.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to print my ferry ticket or is mobile ok?

You don't need to print your ticket. Your boarding voucher is in your account: open Bookings, then View trip details, and click Download PDF. On the day of travel, show the QR code on it — on your phone is fine — to the ferry operator staff at the pier named on your ticket, and they will direct you to your boat.

If you'd prefer paper, print the PDF yourself.

What happens if my ferry is cancelled due to weather?

We are sorry when weather stops a sailing. Ferries usually run in rain; speedboats are more often stopped by rough seas.

If your trip is cancelled because of weather, your booking in Bookings shows a message once our team has confirmed the cancellation. You can then either move to the next available service with Change this booking, or cancel with Cancel & refund for a full refund.

If the sailing is running but you choose not to travel, the normal cancellation policy applies.

Why is my account locked?

We lock an account for a short time after several failed sign-in attempts in a row. It is an automatic safety measure: it stops someone else guessing your password, and it happens whether or not the person typing was you.

You do not need to contact us. The lock lifts on its own — see How long am I locked out for?

What is the difference between a locked and a blocked account?

Locked is automatic and temporary. It happens after repeated failed sign-in attempts and it lifts by itself — within a minute in most cases.

Blocked is a decision made by our team, and it does not lift on its own. If your account is blocked you will need to contact us; waiting will not change it, and neither will resetting your password.

If you are not sure which applies to you, get in touch and we will tell you.

How do I unlock my account now?

Wait, and try again. Every lock lifts on its own — a minute the first time, and never more than an hour however many attempts have failed. There is nothing to click and nobody to contact.

If you have forgotten your password, do not keep guessing: each wrong attempt makes the next wait longer. Use Forgot password instead. Resetting your password gets you straight back in.

My account locked but I never tried to sign in

Then someone else was trying to sign in as you, and the lock did its job — it stopped them.

Your account is safe: a lock means the attempts failed. Nobody got in. You do not have to do anything, and the lock will lift on its own.

We would still recommend two things:

  • Change your password, especially if you use the same one on another website.
  • Add an authenticator app in your account security settings, so a password alone is never enough to sign in as you.

If you get these repeatedly, contact us and we will look into it.
