Peter Knox Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Good Evening, So, I have never been to Ko Lipe and don't even know how to get there. I am thinking of going there for a few days and relax at the beach with my wife. I am trying to learn snorkeling, too. How do I get to Ko Lipe from Bangkok? By car or plane doesn't matter. Are Ferries going to the island and are some hotels and restaurants open? Cheers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camble Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 You can fly to Hat Yai, minibus to Pac Berra pier, then a 2 hour speedboat to Ko Lipe. I was there in November and really enjoyed it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffr2 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 It's really nice now. Not as many ferries running now. But no tourists, hotels are open and the prices are amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post BMW Overlander Posted February 13, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 13, 2021 Go to Pak Bara Pier GPS: 06.860593, 099.722264 There are number of speedboats available, will get you to the island in an hour. Hotel prices have fallen dramatically, beaches are amazing and diving spots some of the best in south. I stayed at Sita Resort, hardly 5-6 guests there in fairly large resort. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How far/ long on ferry to Tarutao please ? ( hate boats ). No way to get there but the boat. I think it's about 2 hours as it makes 2 stops. Right now, Lipe is fantastic. Enjoy it before the hoards descend there again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question: Can I park my car for one week at Pak Bara Pier while on Koh Lipe? Currently, still driving and only 180 KM left to reach the pier. Cheers.
