Getting There
-
Ferry and Taxi
To get to Bottle Beach in Ko Pha-ngan, start by heading to the main pier in Koh Samui, which is located in Nathon. From wherever you are in Koh Samui, you can take a local songthaew (shared taxi) or a motorbike taxi to Nathon Pier. The ride will take approximately 30-45 minutes, depending on traffic. Once at the pier, buy a ferry ticket to Thong Sala Pier in Ko Pha-ngan. The ferry ride takes around 30 minutes. After arriving at Thong Sala, you can take another songthaew or taxi to Bottle Beach. Inform the driver of your destination; it should take about 30-40 minutes to reach the beach.
-
Longtail Boat
If you prefer a more scenic route, you can hire a longtail boat directly from one of the beaches in Koh Samui, such as Big Buddha or Maenam. Approach one of the boat operators and negotiate a price for a trip to Bottle Beach. Depending on the starting point, the boat ride can take anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour. Ensure you arrange for a return trip as well, as longtail boats typically do not wait at the destination.

Tour Package
Consider booking a day tour that includes Bottle Beach. Many local tour companies offer packages that combine ferry transport and activities. You can find these tours at travel agencies around major tourist areas like Chaweng or Lamai Beach. These packages usually include transportation to and from the beach, making it a hassle-free option.
