How to get from Koh Lanta to Langkawi
Koh Lanta to Langkawi Ferry: Route Overview
Traveling from Koh Lanta to Langkawi links two of the Andaman Sea's best-known islands, connecting Koh Lanta directly with Langkawi. This crossing is popular with travelers moving between Thailand and Malaysia without flying, combining ferry and speedboat legs into a single, bookable journey.
This route operates seasonally, running from January to May and November to December. Outside these months the crossing does not run, so if you're searching for departures at another time of year, check the booking panel above for the next available date within the operating season rather than expecting a booking to appear out of season.
Operators and Journey Duration
The route is served by Bundhaya Speed Boat and Satun Pakbara Speed Boat Club, operating ferry and speed boat equipped with onboard facilities between the two islands. The crossing takes approximately the scheduled journey time, though actual times can shift slightly with sea conditions, so it's worth allowing extra time either side of your booking, especially if you have onward connections.
Schedule and Frequency
Departures run 1 during the January to May and November to December season. Exact departure times vary by day and operator, so use the live schedule shown when you search rather than assuming a fixed timetable — this keeps you booked onto a sailing that's actually running.
Prices and Booking
Fares on the Koh Lanta to Langkawi route start from ฿2,945 per person, one way. Prices vary depending on the operator, vessel type, and how far in advance you book. Booking ahead is worthwhile during peak periods within the January to May and November to December season, when seats on the more direct crossings sell out first.

Important Travel Information
Duration
- The crossing takes around the scheduled journey time, including any transfer or connection time between vessels.
- Delays can occur due to weather or sea conditions, particularly toward the edges of the January to May and November to December season.
Travel Preparation
- Arrive at the pier at least 30 minutes before departure to allow time for check-in and boarding.
- Pack a change of clothes or a dry bag for spray, as open-deck sections can get wet in rougher conditions.
- Bring motion sickness remedies if you're prone to seasickness.
Documents
- Carry a valid passport, since this crossing involves an international border between Thailand and Malaysia.
- Keep your booking confirmation, printed or on your phone, ready to show at check-in.
- Check current entry requirements for Malaysia before you travel, as these can change independently of the ferry schedule.
Traveling the Other Way
If you're planning the return leg, book the Langkawi to Koh Lanta ferry route for the same operators, prices, and seasonal availability in reverse.
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.
