En avión
While Krabi has its own airport (KBV), there are no direct flights to Koh Lipe, as the island doesn’t have an airport. Flying is generally not the most practical option from Krabi to Koh Lipe, since both are already located in southern Thailand and well connected by land and sea.
Dicho esto, algunos viajeros optan por volar desde Krabi al Aeropuerto de Hat Yai (HDY) y después continuar con minivan o taxi al el Puerto de Pak Bara, seguido de un ferry a Koh Lipe. Sin embargo, esto añade tiempo de viaje y traslados desde el aeropuerto que no son necesarios.
Una ruta más directa y pintoresca completamente por tierra y ferryestán disponibles boletos combinados desde Krabi a Koh Lipe, que incluyen traslados en minivan hasta el muelle de Pak Bara y un barco rápido hacia la isla, haciendo que el viaje sea sencillo y sin complicaciones.
Vía ferry y bus
Traveling from Krabi to Koh Lipe by ferry is one of the most straightforward and scenic ways to reach the island. While there’s no direct overnight ferry, several companies offer servicios combinados de minivan y barco rápido que hacen que el viaje sea sencillo y relativamente rápido.
La ruta más común implica una recogida por la mañana o a primera hora de la tarde desde tu hotel en Krabi, seguido de un traslado en minivan o taxi (aproximadamente 4 horas) hasta el Puerto de Pak Bara in Satun Province. From there, you’ll board a barco rápido a Koh Lipe, que dura aproximadamente entre 1,5 y 2 horas, dependiendo de las condiciones del mar.
El tiempo total de viaje suele ser entre 6 o 8 horas, y los boletos combinados que cubren todos los traslados están ampliamente disponibles en agencias de viaje y operadores de ferry en la ciudad de Krabi, Ao Nang o incluso en el aeropuerto.
This ferry route is available year-round, but operates with greater frequency during the high season (November to April), so booking in advance is recommended—especially during peak travel months.
As ferry bookings aren’t available online, travelers must secure tickets through local travel agencies or directly at the port.
In summary, while Krabi offers various transit options to Koh Lipe, the journey typically involves a combination of land and sea transfers rather than direct overnight ferries. Whether you opt for a comfortable minivan and speedboat connection or plan your travel around available ferry services, Koh Lipe’s stunning beaches, crystal-clear waters, and vibrant marine life make every step of the trip worthwhile—promising an unforgettable island escape in the heart of southern Thailand’s coastal paradise.
