Ferry Boat Pattaya - Koh Larn
This ferry service connects Pattaya's pier to Koh Larn, also known as Coral Island, offering one of the most affordable ways to reach the island at just 30 baht per person each way. The crossing takes approximately 40 to 45 minutes and runs multiple times daily, making it a practical choice for travellers planning a half-day or full-day island excursion without the expense of a speedboat transfer. The ferry carries a mix of tourists and locals, providing a straightforward and unhurried ride with open water views. Notably, Koh Larn has two ferry points — Na Baan and Tawaen — so travellers should confirm which landing corresponds to their intended beach before boarding, as different services may serve different stops. Staff assist passengers on and off the boat, though there is no boarding ramp, which may be worth considering for those with significant luggage or mobility requirements. Good to know: The 30-baht fare applies one way, so budget for the return journey. Speedboat alternatives are available at the pier for those prioritising speed over cost. Arriving early is advisable on weekends and public holidays, when the ferry tends to be busier. Current schedules and additional route information are available through the website listed with this entry.

Reviews from Google
Great prices and awesome views. I would recommend the ferry for a nice relaxing and budget friendly ride to the island
The regular ferry at 30 baht is something of a bargain as long as you have 40 minutes to spare, don’t have too much luggage, or don’t need extra help in getting aboard. The speedboats are fast and the staff usually offer more help with luggage and getting on, but the ride can be damn uncomfortable, especially if the sea is choppy.

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.
