How to get to and from Railay?
How to get to Railay ?
You can only reach Railay by boat. Some resorts in Railay have their own speedboat shuttles that connect Ao Nang (20 km from Krabi) or another pier near Krabi to Railay. Otherwise, longtail boats will take you there from Ao Nang (until 6 pm) or the Ao Nam Mao Pier or the Chao Fah Pier in Krabi town. Expect a journey of between 15 minutes and 45 minutes and a price of 100 to 150 THB per trip. In high season, ferries also arrive from Koh Phi Phi and Koh Lanta.Buses and minivans to Railay
Please note: many buses can only be booked 30 days before departure, so they will not appear in our booking partner's results if you search earlier.

Leaving from Railay ?
From Railay, you can easily return to Krabi (Chao Fah Pier or Ao Nam Mao Pier) or Ao Nang either by longtail boats or by your hotel's shuttle service if available (usually, hotel speedboats drop you off at Ao Nang beach only). But, in high season, you can also go directly to Koh Phi Phi or Koh Lanta without passing through Krabi.Boats and ferries from Railay

Travelling by bus in Thailand
