Koh Larn half-day itinerary

A compact planning shape: one verified ferry route, one beach and a confirmed return, adjusted to the travel-day conditions.

Good for: Travellers short on time who can protect the confirmed return and keep a mainland fallback. Cruise visitors must independently verify the port transfer and ship deadline before considering the island.

The half-day plan · protect the crossing and return margin first
Plan basics

Set the boundaries first

A half-day leaves little recovery time if a transfer, sailing or weather condition changes. Pick one supported beach record, confirm the correct Pier A route and return sailing, and keep a mainland alternative rather than treating this as a guaranteed connection.

Duration
~4–5 hours
Rough cost
Editable assumptions only. The operator-posted public-ferry return baseline was 80฿ when checked on 23 August 2026; every other cost needs a current quote.
What to book
Check the current operator timetable and ticket conditions, then separately confirm any transfer, facility or paid activity you require.
Getting around
Pier to one beach and back — minimal travel, no island loop.

Two route windows to compare

These pairs are copied from the separately posted Tawaen and Na Baan timetables. A timetable span is not time on the beach: crossing, boarding, local transfer and return margin all sit inside it.

Direct Tawaen window

11:00 Bali Hai → Tawaen

Pier A counter normally closes by 10:40; arrive earlier.

Listed return16:00 Tawaen → Bali Hai

One beach-side arrival with no cross-island transfer built into the example.

Na Baan window

12:00 Bali Hai → Na Baan

Pier A counter normally closes by 11:40; arrive earlier.

Listed return17:00 Na Baan → Bali Hai

One current local transfer only after its provider, destination, fare and return are confirmed.

Example, not a booking: confirm both directions on the travel day. Do not treat the return shown here as the last possible choice or use it without your own margin.
