Getting There

Boat
To reach Ko Rin from Pattaya, you will first need to make your way to the Bang Sare Pier. From central Pattaya, you can take a local songthaew (a shared taxi) to Bang Sare. Look for songthaews that are marked for Bang Sare, and the fare is usually around 20-30 THB. The journey will take approximately 30-40 minutes. Once you arrive at Bang Sare, head directly to the pier area where you will find several boat operators offering trips to Ko Rin. Prices for boat trips can vary, so it’s advisable to negotiate or check for group rates. The boat ride itself will take about 45 minutes to an hour, depending on sea conditions.

Long-tail Boat
Alternatively, if you prefer a more direct route, you can hire a long-tail boat from Bang Sare Pier. This option is more expensive but allows for a more personalized experience. After arriving at Bang Sare, walk to the pier and inquire with the boat operators about hiring a long-tail boat. Prices can range from 2,000 to 4,000 THB for a private trip, which can accommodate several passengers. The ride will take you directly to Ko Rin, and you can also request stops at nearby attractions if desired.
