On the island, vacationers can see different types of transport. The most popular are pickup trucks with a covered cab, in which seats are installed along the wall. The fare to the farthest village will be a maximum of 400 baht. Light motorcycles, bicycles and scooters are also popular.
Most tourists prefer to rent a bike. It's a pretty convenient way to get around. Phangan has a lot of rental shops. Employees of such companies are on duty at the piers of the island. They immediately offer their services to tourists. If someone is interested, the agent will take you to the nearest office.
Renting a scooter for a day will cost 170 baht. You need to refuel the transport yourself. A liter of gasoline costs about 30-35 baht.
Renting a car for a day will be at least 1200 baht. It all depends on the make of the car.
From the pier, vacationers can get to the hotels on the coast by motor boats. This is a more comfortable option than traveling by car on steep roads. The fare will also be more expensive. For example, a trip from the port to a hotel on the opposite coast will cost 2,500 baht, although the price for a ferry ticket from the mainland to the island is 400 baht.
On Koh Phangan, it is better to travel by rented transport. You can choose a car or motorbike. The roads here are not easy, so only more experienced drivers will be able to drive vehicles. Another convenient option is a taxi. It is also worth noting that tourists can only get to some beaches of Koh Phangan by water. In this case, you will need to pay for travel on a long-tail boat. It is also called longtail.
