Rassada Pier Terminal Guide.

Rassada Harbour is straightforward to navigate. While a detailed map is coming soon, you can easily find your way by following these main zones:

• Zone A (Outside): Parking & Drop-off. The spacious open-air lot directly in front of the building is where taxis drop you off and where overnight parking is located.
• Zone B (Entrance): Main Doors. Look for the large "Rassada Harbour" sign. Proceed through these doors for security checks and to enter the main hall.
• Zone C (Inside): Check-in Counters. Immediately upon entering, you will see various operator counters (e.g., Phi Phi Cruiser, Phi Phi Logistic, Andaman Wave Master, Chaokoh). This is where you exchange your e-ticket for a physical boarding pass and sticker.
• Zone D (Inside): Waiting Area. The central hall features seating areas, a cafe, and convenience stores for last-minute supplies.
• Zone E (Back): Boarding Gates. After check-in, walk straight through the building toward the back doors to reach the boarding piers.

The terminal is equipped to handle basic traveler needs before the 1-2 hour crossing.

• Food & Drink: A coffee shop and small convenience stores are available inside the terminal. We recommend purchasing water and snacks here, as options on the boats are limited.
• Restrooms: Public restrooms are available inside the terminal building free of charge.
• ATMs & Cash: A few ATMs are located near the entrance. It is highly recommended to withdraw sufficient cash here, as ATM access on smaller islands can be unreliable.
• Luggage Storage: While there are no self-service lockers, a luggage storage service is available at the terminal, with rates starting at 150 THB per bag.

For travelers driving rental cars, Rassada Pier offers an open-air, managed parking lot right in front of the terminal.

• Overnight Rate: Approximately 100 THB per night (subject to change). Pay the attendant at the booth upon entry and keep your receipt safe.
• Short-term Rate: Hourly parking is available for those just dropping off passengers (typically 20 THB).
• Capacity: During peak season (December–March), the lot can fill up quickly. Arrive early to secure a spot.

Located on the east coast of Phuket, near Koh Sirey, Rassada Pier is easily accessible by taxi, Grab, or pre-booked shared minivan.

• From Phuket Old Town: 10–15 minutes drive. Excellent area to stay if you have an early morning ferry.
• From Patong / West Coast: 45–60 minutes drive depending on traffic over the hills.
• From Phuket International Airport (HKT): 60–90 minutes drive. Do not book a ferry departing within 2 hours of your flight landing.

Follow these three simple steps to ensure a smooth departure:

1. Arrive Early: Be at the terminal 45–60 minutes before your scheduled departure.
2. Exchange Your Ticket: Head to your Check-in Counters in Zone C. Show your mobile e-ticket (booking confirmation) to receive a physical boarding pass and a colored sticker. Wear the sticker on your shirt. it tells the pier staff which boat and destination you are assigned to.
3. Wait and Board: Wait in the main hall until staff announce your boat is ready. Follow the crowd with your matching sticker color to the boarding gates at the rear of the building.
