Once at Saladan Pier, you will need to park your car in the designated parking area, which may incur a small fee (around 100 THB for the day). After parking, proceed to buy a ticket for the boat to Ko Kradan, which costs approximately 1,500 THB round trip.

Public Transportation (Songthaew)
You can take a Songthaew (shared taxi) from your location in Koh Lanta to Saladan Pier. Look for Songthaews that are heading north toward the pier; they are usually marked on the front. The fare is around 50-100 THB per person, depending on your starting point.

The cost for this service varies, but expect to pay around 1,000-1,500 THB for a round trip. Ensure you confirm the return schedule with the boat operator, as trips may not be frequent.

Private Speedboat
For a faster and more personalized experience, you can hire a private speedboat from Saladan Pier or any other nearby pier.
