Ko Kut Express: Fast Ferry Service to Koh Kood

Ko Kut Express is a fast ferry boat service that offers the advantage of traveling in a nearly straight line between the Laem Sok pier on the mainland and Koh Kood's main pier. Because the Ko Kut express service does not need to stop at any of the resorts private piers or any other islands in between, we can often make this crossing in just 75 minutes, which is usually even faster than most of the speedboats that travel to Koh Kood, not counting privately rented ones..

Our fully air-conditioned express boat has a total capacity of nearly 300 seats in a fully air-conditioned cabin. As with most (speed)boat services, the Koh Kood express also arranges a (unfortunately no longer free) shuttle bus between most hotels in Trat city and the pier in Laem Sok. Passengers can request pick up from the bus station in Trat, the S.A hotel in the city center, or any other hotels / guesthouses / resorts that are located in Trat city, or on the road between the city and the Laem Sok pier. On the Ko Kood side you will find a small fleet of converted pick up trucks waiting to carry you to your resort or, if the roads do not allow easy passage, the nearest drop off point. The transfer on Koh Kood is included in the boat ticket price!

Also during the low season to Koh Kood

Due to our ferry boat's length and powerful engines, we are able to run it back and forth to the island all year round, so also during the low season when the speedboats can not run due to higher waves and possible rain showers in open seas. By traveling with the Ko Kut Express you will arrive fresh and dry, not matter what the weather is like.

Direct to (most) resorts: Speedboat transfers to Ko Kut!

Now we also offer a giant 4 engine catamaran speedboat service that can carry as much as 80 (!) passengers from our Laem Sok pier all the way to most of the island's west-coast resorts at maximum speed! As long as the resort has it's own pier and the sea level is high enough, we will be able to drop you off on it, leaving you just a few dozen steps to walk straight into your bounty island resort. If they don't, you will be taken to the nearest pier from where the resort will then arrange transporation. Passengers for Resorts on, or at any beach below, Ao Prao will be taken to either the Koh Kood Resort or the Siam Beach Resort pier in the Bang Bao bay, from where those resorts, guesthouses or homestays, will arrange their own form of transportation.
