Getting There

The fare is typically around 50-100 THB per person, depending on your starting point. Inform the driver that you want to go to Mango Bay.

Motorbike Rental
If you prefer more flexibility, you can rent a motorbike from a rental shop in Koh Tao. Prices usually range from 150-300 THB per day. From Sairee Beach, head north on the main road. Follow the signs towards Mango Bay. The journey takes about 15-20 minutes, and you will need to navigate some steep hills and sharp turns. Be cautious and wear a helmet!

Walking
For the adventurous, you can also walk to Mango Bay from the northern part of Koh Tao. Starting from Sairee Beach, take the path that leads north towards Ao Leuk. After approximately 30-40 minutes of walking, you will find signs directing you to Mango Bay. The walk offers beautiful views but be prepared for a steep incline.
-
Private Taxi
If you prefer a more comfortable option, you can hire a private taxi. This option can cost anywhere from 300-600 THB, depending on your exact location in Koh Tao. Arrange for a taxi through your hotel or local services, and inform the driver that your destination is Mango Bay.
