“A strategic mainland hub providing high-speed connections to both Koh Kood and Koh Mak with updated international safety standards and systematic luggage management.”

Laem Sok Pier is located approximately 30 kilometers from Trat city center, taking about 30 minutes by car via Highway 3155, a well-paved road that leads directly to the cape. This location is not just an ordinary pier but serves as the most vital maritime hub for transporting tourists to Koh Kood and Koh Mak, the two most popular islands in Trat Province. Currently, both large ferries and high-speed boats are in service, with safety standards updated to align with international tourism, ensuring that sea crossings are smooth and rapid for all travelers.

The journey from Laem Sok to Koh Mak takes only 25-30 minutes, while the trip to Koh Kood takes approximately 60 minutes by high-speed boat, effectively saving travel time so tourists can enjoy more relaxation on the islands.The standard boat schedule is divided into two main periods.

  • Laem Sok - Koh Kood, Koh Mak: Morning round at 10:45 AM and afternoon round at 02:00 PM.
  • Koh Kood and Koh Mak to Laem Sok, there are rounds at 09:00 AM and 12:00 PM every day. 

This allows passengers to precisely plan their onward travel to the airport or bus station. The latest updated ticket prices for 2026 are set to be accessible and cost-effective for the following routes:

  • Laem Sok - Koh Kood: One-way price is 500 Baht.

  • Laem Sok - Koh Mak: One-way price is 400 Baht.

  • Additionally, there is an inter-island connection service for those wishing to do Island Hopping; the Koh Kood - Koh Mak route is only 300 Baht per trip.

This is an excellent choice for travelers wanting to experience the atmosphere of both islands in a single journey. The pier area also features a luggage management system and staff to provide close assistance to all passengers.

For travel during the rainy or monsoon season, boat trips from the mainland are limited for safety reasons. The large ferry, which takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes, primarily operates at 12:30 PM from Laem Sok Pier to Ao Salad Pier on Koh Kood. For high-speed boats during this season, travel time may increase to approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, and tourists must re-check the schedule before traveling, as weather conditions can affect departures at any time. Advanced preparation is therefore very important for those traveling during this period.

The atmosphere around Laem Sok Pier is filled with convenience, featuring spacious and clean waiting areas along with helpful tourist information points. For photographers and travelers who enjoy coastal scenery, the long pier stretching into the sea offers a panoramic view of the Laem Sok bay as far as the eye can see. The sunlight reflecting off the water during the late morning and afternoon adds a vibrant energy to the site. Laem Sok Pier is thus more than a transit station; it is the starting point of impressions and adventures in the Trat sea that tourists will remember forever.
