The Koh Kood Princess passenger boat

Koh Kood Princess is the cheapest boat service to the island.  They have been running a fast passenger ferry service between Laem Sok and Ao Salad bay in the northeast of Koh Kood for over 15 years.

Back in 2002, the Koh Kood Princess Ferry Co., Ltd was the first company to operate a speedboat service between the mainland, Koh Mak and Koh Kood. And this was quickly followed in 2003 by the first, large passenger vessel to the island, the ‘Ninmangkorn Express Boat’.

The current vessel, which has been in service since 2012, is the ‘Koh Kood Princess’.  A 33 metre long fiberglass boat which was built in Singapore.  It has three decks and can carry 300 passengers – most in air-conditioned cabins.  But there is some outdoor seating on the top level and at the rear of the boat.  It is the largest of the ferries running to the island.

Starting in October 2025 a speedboat option has been added.  Ticket prices are discounted from 600 Baht to 500 Baht until the end of 2025.

        No. You have to leave your motorbike at the boat company office on the mainland. You can rent a motorbike when you are on Koh Kood.

      You will need to contact a tour agent in Koh Kood or ask your hotel to book it for you.

      You can buy boat tickets at the pier. All the boat companies have a covered parking area at their ticket offices near the pier where you can leave your car. This is 50 Baht / day.

    Hi there,

    I’m trying to book 3 tickets for the 12.30 Koh Kood Princess transfer to Koh Kood on the 18 November, but don’t seem to be able to get a reply to my request via their website.

    Any advice for getting this booked ?

    Thanks
    Damian

      You could try email : info@kohkoodprincess.com .But they are the least organised when it comes to online booking. You could wait until you are in Thailand and call them. Or book a different boat.
