How to get from Koh Lanta to Koh Jum
Koh Lanta to Koh Jum Ferry
Sailing between Koh Lanta and Koh Jum is one of the shortest inter-island hops on this stretch of the Andaman coast, linking Koh Lanta's developed beaches with Koh Jum's quieter, largely undeveloped shoreline. The crossing takes around the scheduled journey time, run by Andaman Wave Master and Bundhaya Speed Boat using speed boat.
When this route operates
This route runs seasonally, operating from January to April and October to December only. Outside these months, sea conditions on this part of the Andaman Sea make direct boat crossings unreliable, so no sailings are scheduled and the booking engine will show no available departures. If you're searching for tickets outside January to April and October to December, check ferry and speedboat connections routed via Krabi, or ask your accommodation on Koh Lanta about arranging a private longtail transfer, which some boat operators still offer on request off-season. Once the season opens, it's worth booking early, as the first departures tend to fill quickly.
Schedule and departure points
During the active season, 3 run on this route, departing from the pier on Koh Lanta and arriving directly at Koh Jum, with no transfer required. Exact departure times vary by day, weather, and operator, so always check the live schedule shown on this page before booking, since timings can shift with tides and conditions at sea.
Prices and what's included
Fares start from ฿750 per person for a one-way ticket. The final price depends on the operator, seat class, and how far in advance you book, so it's worth comparing the options shown above before confirming your journey. Boats on this route typically include onboard facilities, keeping the short crossing comfortable even in the middle of the day.

Travelling the other way
Planning the return leg? You can book the reverse crossing on our Koh Jum to Koh Lanta ferry page, which covers the same operators, schedule pattern, and pricing in the opposite direction.
Choosing between the two islands
Koh Jum sits between Koh Lanta and Koh Phi Phi, and suits travellers looking for a slower pace, with limited nightlife and few large resorts. Most visitors base themselves near Ao Si beach or Ko Pu, both a short walk or taxi ride from the pier. Koh Lanta, by contrast, offers a wider choice of accommodation, restaurants, and onward transport, including further ferry routes to Koh Phi Phi and Phuket, making it a practical base if you're combining several islands in one trip.
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.
