Railay to Koh Lipe Destination Reviews

Renata D

We took a boat from Railay Beach to Koh Lipe, choosing this company because it advertised the shortest travel time. However, the experience didn’t match what was promised. We expected a direct trip, but the boat stopped at many islands along the way. Because of that, the journey took much longer than expected, and we arrived about 1 to 1.5 hours late. So overall, you really can’t rely on the schedule shown on their website. The boat itself was very hot, but that seems to be standard for speedboats in Thailand. Passengers are covered by a canopy, so you’re protected from sun and rain, but the luggage stays outside, exposed to the sun the entire time. One small positive point is that, because of the multiple stops, you can get off at some islands and use the bathroom. This actually helps, since the toilet on the boat is very poor. The sea was calm for most of the trip, but during the last 1 to 1.5 hours it got quite rough, which can be uncomfortable if you’re sensitive to waves. In summary, the company advertises a shorter travel time than what actually happens, mainly because the trip is not direct and includes multiple stops.

We left from Railay and arrived 4h late because they cancelled the speedboat trip from Koh Lanta to Koh Lipe due to bad sea (which is good, because safety comes first). So, they took us in a van from Koh Lanta to Pak Bai and from there to Koh Lipe in speedboat. We had to wait 1h for the van to come pick us up...

Van

Vans are a great alternative - or, in many cases - your only option - if you need to travel overland within one and the same province or neighbouring provinces or states. Vans ply the roads between Railay and Koh Lipe, too.

Things to remember: When travelling by van with huge luggage buying a separate seat for your suitcase or backpack is a good idea. Do not expect there is a roomy luggage compartment in a van - there is actually none and your fellow passengers are unlikely to appreciate your luggage stuck under their feet, alas.
