Koh Kradan to Trang Ferry

Traveling from Koh Kradan to Trang covers the transfer between this small Trang-province island and the mainland town of Trang, the main gateway for onward travel to Bangkok, Krabi, and Hat Yai. The route runs from Koh Kradan to Trang and is operated by several operators, using ferry and speed boat for the crossing.

Seasonal availability

This route operates only during January to April and October to December. Outside these months the direct boat service does not run, so the booking engine will show no available departures if you search an off-season date. If you are traveling outside January to April and October to December, check nearby departure points on Koh Ngai or Koh Mook for an alternative connection to Trang, or plan your visit within the active season to avoid being stranded on the island.

Journey time and departure points

The crossing between Koh Kradan and Trang takes around the scheduled journey time. Boats depart from the Koh Kradan beach jetty, the island's main pier used by longtail boats and speedboats, and arrive at the pier serving Trang on the mainland. From there, transfers connect onward to Trang town and Trang Airport, so travelers flying in or out via Trang can time their airport transfer around the boat schedule. Confirm your exact pickup point and onward transfer option when booking, as pier locations can vary slightly by operator.

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.
