Even if Koh Lanta is an island it is not only accessible by boat. There are also minivans trips that take the two little ferrys to cross the little sea arms from the mainland and arrive on the island. In low season, it is often the only option. In high season, you can also connect to Koh Lanta from Kho Phi Phi (see here) or Railay without returning to Krabi.

To leave Koh Lanta you can take place in a minivan that will cut the two arms of the sea that separates you from the mainland by taking the little ferry boats or take a boat directly to Krabi, Koh Phi Phi (book here) or Railay. In low season, often only minivans remain in service.
