Getting to Koh Samui by ferry is a pleasant and economical option if you're not flying. Travelling from the main pier on the mainland – Donsak – takes roughly 2 hours. The cruise is usually tranquil and has a strong holiday feel.

The island of Samui has 4 ferry piers. Each of them has different connections to the continent and islands close to Koh Samui, namely Koh Phangan and Koh Tao. Nathon is the main port of arrival and departure by ferry in Samui. Lipa Noi Pier is of a smaller size and is connected to Donsak Pier, just south of Surat Thani on the continent. Bangrak Pier is to the northwest of Koh Samui, serving as the main connection of Koh Phangan and Koh Tao. Maenam Pier has ferries to get to the 2 islands and Surat Thani.
