Route Details and Booking
Boats depart from Koh Jum on Koh Jum and arrive at Koh Yao Yai on Koh Yao Yai, with onboard facilities including onboard facilities. Because sailings on this route can change with sea conditions and demand, it is worth booking a little in advance during busier periods to secure a seat. Once you have checked the live schedule and price above, you can complete your booking directly through this page.
When This Route Operates
This is a seasonal Andaman crossing: services run January to May and November to December, in line with calmer sea conditions in the region. Outside this window, boats between Koh Jum and Koh Yao Yai do not run, so if you are searching outside the operating season, plan your visit for one of the active months shown above. Travellers needing to move between the two islands off-season should instead route via Krabi town or Phuket, both of which keep year-round ferry and speedboat links to the wider Andaman islands, including Koh Yao Noi just north of Koh Yao Yai.
Getting to Koh Jum and Koh Yao Yai
Koh Jum sits between Koh Lanta and Krabi, and is typically reached first via Krabi's piers before connecting onward. Koh Yao Yai, along with its smaller neighbour Koh Yao Noi, lies in Phang Nga Bay roughly midway between Krabi and Phuket, making both islands convenient stopovers for travellers island-hopping across the region rather than flying directly. If you are coming from Phuket, connections to Koh Yao Yai are generally more frequent than those from Koh Jum, so factor this into your itinerary when the direct route is out of season.
Planning Your Trip
For a smoother island-hopping route through the Andaman, many travellers combine this crossing with stops in Krabi or Phuket, or extend their trip to Koh Yao Noi. If you are also planning the return leg, see the Koh Yao Yai to Koh Jum ferry route for schedules and fares in the opposite direction.

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.
