Satun Pakbara Speed Boat Club also runs the route at a similar price tier. All sailings are JOIN (shared speedboat, Standard class, 75 seats) — there is no separate private charter option on SmartEnPlus. The fare covers the foot-passenger ticket only; park entry fees for either island do not apply on this corridor.

Where does the speedboat from Koh Kradan arrive on Koh Lanta?+

The speedboat from Koh Kradan arrives at Saladan Pier (also called Bann Saladan Pier), the only ferry pier on Koh Lanta Yai, on the island's northern tip. From Saladan Pier you can reach most Koh Lanta resorts within 5–30 minutes by tuk-tuk, songthaew, or rented motorbike — the northern beach cluster (Klong Dao, Long Beach, Phra Ae, Klong Khong, Klong Nin) is closest. Departure on Koh Kradan is from the south end of the main beach in front of Kradan Beach Resort — there is no formal pier, so passengers wade a few steps to board the speedboat.

Boats run daily during high season (mid-October to mid-May) at around 11:00, with both operators charging the same adult fare of THB 900.
