Koh Kood Princess
Koh Kood Princess operates as a passenger ferry service providing transportation between Koh Kood and the mainland in Trat Province, eastern Thailand. It serves as one of the primary ways travellers reach Koh Kood, a relatively remote island known for its limited development and natural surroundings. The service departs from Ao Yai on the island side, making it a practical reference point for anyone planning arrivals or departures. Travellers can expect a straightforward ferry experience suited to island transport in this part of the Gulf of Thailand. The service carries both passengers and, depending on the schedule, luggage and supplies. With a solid rating across a substantial number of reviews, the operator has a reasonable track record among those travelling to and from the island. Good to know: ferry schedules in this region are subject to seasonal variation, particularly during the monsoon months from around May to October when sea conditions can affect departure times or cause cancellations. Travellers are strongly advised to check current timetables and book in advance during peak season, particularly around Thai public holidays. The official website at kohkoodprincess.com is the most reliable source for up-to-date schedule and booking information. Arriving at the pier with time to spare is recommended.

Tips for Visiting Transportation
Take the Sleeper Train at Least Once
The Bangkok-to-Chiang Mai overnight train in a second-class sleeper berth is a bucket-list experience. Book at least a week ahead via 12Go.asia or at Hua Lamphong station. Upper berths are cheaper and have more headroom; lower berths have a window.
Use Grab Everywhere
Grab is the Uber of Southeast Asia and works across Thailand for cars, motorbike taxis, and even tuk-tuks in some cities. It eliminates haggling and provides fare estimates upfront. Load a Thai SIM or use eSIM to stay connected.
Rent Scooters Carefully
Always photograph the scooter's existing damage before riding off, and keep your passport — give a photocopy instead (some shops insist on the original; avoid these). Wear a helmet; police fine 500 THB for no helmet and accidents without one void insurance.
