Koh Tao is located off the east coast of Thailand, neighbouring the islands of Koh Phangan and Koh Samui. The port remains one of the busier areas of Koh Tao; there are cafes close to the port and it remains a hub of activity throughout the day with many ferry routes to nearby islands and tourist destinations. Away from the pier, the island is renowned for being particularly clean – any rubbish that can’t be burned must leave the island, making it tricky for visitors with upcoming departures. There are no waste disposal workers on Koh Tao, therefore it is important not to waste the limited resources of the island. As opposed to many of the popular tourist areas of Thailand, Koh Tao isn’t geared towards backpackers and travellers on a budget; the desired clientele is primarily those who have a keen interest in diving and want to take advantage of the excellent diving and snorkelling opportunities. For those not keen on water sport adventures, the beaches across the island boast white sands next to azure seas, creating the idyllic setting for a relaxing holiday. To travel around the island, most tourists rent a motorcycle for the duration of their stay. It is advised to be careful whilst on the roads, most of them are basic and bumpy and although the lack of traffic makes serious accidents rare, there have been known injuries. There are rental shops within a few minutes of the port, though it is important to use official stores to avoid scammers.
Found on the south east coast of Thailand, Chumphon Port lies in the Chumphon Province of the Mueang Chumphon District. Chumphon Port has remained relatively unspoilt by Thailand’s mass tourism, and still boasts pristine sand beaches, unexplored caves and picturesque walking trails. There are three ferry routes coming out of Chumphon port, providing the crossing to some of Thailand’s most southerly islands. The routes to Koh Phangan, Koh Tao and Koh Samui all run once a day, usually departing Chumphon Port in the early hours of the morning. The sailing to Koh Tao lasts around 2 hours 30 minutes, whilst the crossings to Koh Samui and Koh Phangan take around twice the time. There are no catering facilities at the port or on board the vessel, so it may be advised that passengers bring their own food and drink.
