Frequently Asked Questions — Trang to Koh Mook

How do I get from Trang to Koh Mook?+

Travel from Trang to Koh Mook is by door-to-door minivan plus longtail boat transfer, taking around 2–2.5 hours in total. Your driver picks you up at your Trang hotel, Trang Airport (TST), or Trang Railway Station, drives about an hour to Kuan Tung Ku Pier, and you connect with a private longtail boat for the 20–30 minute crossing to Koh Mook Pier — a proper dock on the east side of the island.

Smart En Plus is the sole operator running this route on SmartEnPlus, with four contract variants covering different pickup points in Trang. The boat lands at a formal pier, so unlike some neighboring islands you don't need to wade ashore — just step off the boat and walk to your resort or arrange a tuk-tuk for properties further afield. Book in advance during high season (November–April).

How much does a transfer from Trang to Koh Mook cost?+

Private minivan plus longtail boat transfers from Trang to Koh Mook start at ฿2,500 per vehicle when you depart from Trang Railway Station, or ฿2,800 from a Trang city hotel or Trang Airport. These are per-vehicle prices, not per person — so a couple sharing a VAN pays the same as a family of four, the only difference being luggage capacity.

The route is operated exclusively by Smart En Plus on the SmartEnPlus platform, with four contract variants covering hotel, airport, and railway station pickups. Public alternatives exist (a shared local ferry departs Kuan Tung Ku Pier once daily at 12:00 PM for around ฿950, and 12Go lists Van+Ferry combos from ฿180 per person), but those are not bookable through SmartEnPlus and require separate arrangements to reach the pier.

Where do boats arrive on Koh Mook?+

Boats arriving on Koh Mook from Trang land at Koh Mook Pier, a formal dock on the island's east side near Sivalai Beach. This is different from neighboring Koh Kradan, where boats anchor offshore and passengers wade to the beach. At Koh Mook Pier you simply step off the boat onto the dock, with no special footwear or waterproofing needed.

From the pier, most east-side resorts are walking distance along the sand. For properties on the far side of the island, a short tuk-tuk or longtail boat transfer is available and often included with your booking. The pier is used by all SmartEnPlus longtail boat transfers, and by public shared ferries that depart Kuan Tung Ku Pier once daily at 12:00 PM. Note that some high-speed catamaran services (such as Tigerline) cannot dock at Koh Mook Pier in all conditions and may use a longtail shuttle from a deeper-water anchorage — this is a boat-draft limitation, not a pier absence.
