Koh Yao Noi Information

Koh Yao Noi By Speedboat

Yao Noi island is a piece of heaven, this beautiful island can take your breath away! The island is only a 30 to 60-minute ride by speedboat from either Krabi or Phuket, from the mainland of Phang Nga Bay it takes 90 minutes by ferry from Tha Dan Pier. There is no public transportation on Koh Yao Noi but you can easily hire a taxi or a motorcycle to explore the island. Renting a motorbike is a piece of cake when it comes to so many destinations in Thailand, some resorts also offer bicycles for rent for the whole day. If you’re at Koh Jum and searching for the fastest way to go to Koh Yao Noi then you should get on a speedboat ferry which takes only 1:15 hour to reach the island. Plenty of trips from/to Koh Lanta, Koh Lipe, Koh Phangan, Ao Nang, and Railay are available daily from the main pier of Koh Yao Noi “Manoh Pier”.


Koh Yao Noi Information

Koh Yao Noi is located in the middle of Phang Nga Bay with its sister Koh Yao Yai. Because of the programs offered by the island’s local residents, like the eco-friendly homestay program, the island was received the World Legacy Award from National Geographic Traveler magazine and from Conservation International in 2002. This award was one of the main reasons why the island started to gain worldwide attention. Even though the development of Yao Noi island is accelerating, the island remains quiet and far different from the crowds of Phuket.
