Koh Jum to Phang Nga: Ferry and Transport Guide
Travelling from Koh Jum to Phang Nga links a quiet, laid-back island with one of the Andaman coast's main transport hubs. Koh Jum, also known locally as Ko Pu, sits between the better-known islands of Koh Lanta and Koh Phi Phi, and is usually reached by a mix of longtail or speedboat transfer and road connections rather than a single direct ferry. Phang Nga town, the destination end of this route, is the provincial capital and a common stop for travellers continuing on to Khao Lak or the piers used for Phang Nga Bay tours.
Seasonal availability
This route operates January to May and November to December. Outside these months, sea conditions in this part of the Andaman make the crossing unreliable, so boats are suspended and the booking engine will show no available departures. If you are travelling out of season, consider the road-and-ferry combination via Krabi, which runs on a more consistent year-round schedule, or check back closer to the start of the next operating window.
How to get from Koh Jum to Phang Nga
The journey typically combines a boat transfer from the pier on Koh Jum with an onward speed boat for the mainland leg to Phang Nga. Bundhaya Speed Boat is among the operators running this route, and total journey time is around the scheduled journey time, though this can vary with sea conditions, tide times at the Koh Jum pier, and how well the boat and road legs are timed to connect. Onboard facilities depend on the operator and vehicle used, but commonly include onboard facilities.
Schedules, frequency and pricing
During the operating season, 2 are available on this route, so it's worth booking ahead in high season to secure your preferred departure time rather than arriving at the pier and hoping for space. Fares start from ฿1,200 per person; the exact price depends on the operator, the vehicle class, and how far in advance you book. Exact departure and arrival times vary by operator and by day, so always check the specific schedule shown at booking rather than relying on a fixed time, since missing a connection on this route can mean waiting until the next available departure.
Booking your trip
Once you've checked that your travel dates fall within January to May and November to December, you can compare available departures, operators and fares for Koh Jum to Phang Nga directly on this page and book your seat in a few steps. If you're planning the return leg, the Phang Nga to Koh Jum ferry schedule covers the same route in reverse, and travellers combining several islands may also want to look at the Koh Lanta to Phang Nga route as an alternative starting point.
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.
