Seatran are one of two ferry companies running from Koh Samui to outer islands. Reasonable service albeit very busy (Christmas time) so hard to find somewhere to sit and quite noisy especially outside. We went to Koh Toa which is 2 hours by ferry, it was £15 pp. Small shop on boar for drinks and bagged snacks. Please note - you will be loading and unloading your own cases which can be tricky especially as people don't like to queue in Thailand.

We flew from Bangkok Airport (BKK) to Samui Airport. We took a shared van to Seatran Bangrak Pier to take Seatran Ferry to Ko Phangan. The passenger ferry was well maintained. The staff were helpful with our luggage.

Their ferries were extra large as compared to Lomprayah with more leg space and seats, so much more easy to walk and take your luggage around. Their cafe inside also had a lot of food & snack options at affordable prices.
Could be slightly more managed though.

We took a bus from Krabi to donsak Pier and then a ferry to koh Samui, while we had to go to koh Phangan. On the bus the driver made a stop to smoke and check some things, the bus stood still for around 20 minutes and when we were on the ferry we noticed money was missing from our bigger backpacks.
Driver also smokes, drinks and uses his phone while driving.

We decided late Sunday night to go to Koh Pha-ngan on Monday for a day trip.
We were able to book efficiently on their website and pay by credit card in order
to pick up tickets at the check in counter at Bangrak pier. Best part is that now due
To the special circumstances the ferry was not crowed. We could move around freely
and sit wherever we wanted. The ferry appears well maintained and safe. No cars,
Only persons, and we were there in 35 minutes.Needless to say, views from ferry were magnificent.

Now in English. Transfer from Phuket to Phangan on the 27.07.2023 by this company spoiled all my mood. My husband and me hid 500$ in our baggage just before the trip. In our hotel on Phangan immediately after arriving we saw no money any more. Though the envelope where this money was kept was on its place. The only time we didn't see the bag was on a big bus. There were a few bags and a few people on this bus. No problems to search the bags of such stupid people as we are.

Very well organised. Ferry was clean and has a little food shop with a variety of snacks for the 1 1/2 trip over to Koh Samui. Air condition is available on the forward seating area. Plenty of clean restrooms. A very enjoyable journey.

We travelled with Seatran from Koh Tao to Koh Pha Ngan. It was cheaper than Lomprayah and far better than Lomprayah. We noticed Seatran and Lomprayah boats were due to leave at the same time. On the Seatran boat, we left exactly on time on a boat that was clean, comfortable and with lots of space. Looking across at the hoards of people lining up trying to board the already packed Lomprayah service, we were so pleased we ignored all the ticket seller pressure to book Lomprayah, but insisted on Seatran. Their boat looked like it would be very delayed.
The journey was very pleasant with the Seatran boat dealing very well with the waves and not rolling around too much. On arrival in Koh Pha Ngan, disembarkation was swift and efficient.
I was talking to someone later by the hotel pool who had arrived on the Lomprayah ferry and he told me many people were sick as the boat was rolling badly. Soooo happy I took Seatran that day!
An excellent service, which I will be choosing over the competition on future visits to the islands.

How do I find out if the ferry is going to be cancelled due to bad weather?
Pretty stormy this afternoon. Can't find any info on if they are running.

Hi Christina, sorry for late reply. Hope that everything goes well. Normally in case of storm we decide run or not at the last minute. From Samui to Phangan this is not a problem but it could be from Phangan to Tao.

Ciao, volevo sapere se i pick up della compagnia Seatran Discovery per raggiungere il molo di Bangkrak di Koh Samui, ti passano a prendere nell'hotel in cui si soggiorna oppure occorre raggiungere dei punti precisi ?

Do I need to print the ticket off?
I bought this ticket online for tomorrow and as I am back packing I have no acces to a printer. I’ve now had the booking confirmation saying it must be on a paper print out. The website never made this clear beforehand otherwise I wouldn’t have purchased it! Does anyone know if it will be ok to just have the ticket on my phone?
Written January 16, 2018
I just bought my ticket online for the next day and do not have access to a printer before I arrive at the dock. Is it necessary to print the tickets in order to board? This seems like an unreasonable request with no warning before buying the tickets.
Written February 13, 2017
Just show them the ticket confirmation on your phone. It should work out.

salve, volevo sapere da qualcuno se ci sono limiti di bagaglio o pesi massimi da rispettare per gli stessi. ciao e grazie
