Rassada Pier · Phuket

A clearer start
at the pier.

Ferries and speedboats leave Phuket for Phi Phi Island and other nearby destinations. Choose the arrival pier and boat that fit your day, then give yourself enough time to check in.

01 / Start here

One terminal. Different boats and arrival points.

Rassada Pier is a departure point on the east side of Phuket. Your ticket matters more than a general route name: check the operator, departure time, vessel and arrival pier before setting off for the terminal.

02 / Destinations

Where are you going?

The name of your arrival pier can change the final part of your trip.

01

Phi Phi Island

Tonsai Pier

The main arrival point for Phi Phi Don. Confirm the service time and whether your ticket is for a ferry or speedboat.

02

Phi Phi Island

Laemtong

A different arrival area from Tonsai. Check the exact stop when your hotel is near Laemtong Beach.

03

Beyond Phi Phi

Krabi & Koh Lanta

Services may vary by operator and season. Read the arrival location and any connections shown on your ticket.

03 / Boat choice

Ferry or
speedboat?

Both leave from Rassada Pier. The right option depends on where you need to arrive and how much time you have.

01 / Standard ferry

More time on board.

A larger boat with a steadier feel for many passengers. Allow roughly two hours for a direct Phuket to Phi Phi Tonsai crossing, then check the operator’s actual timetable.

02 / Fast speedboat

Shorter crossing.

Some direct Phuket to Phi Phi Tonsai services take around one hour. The shorter crossing still needs the right check-in window and arrival point.
