Bus
From Surat Thani city center, head to the Surat Thani Bus Terminal (Nakhon Si Thammarat Rd). You can take a tuk-tuk or a local songthaew (shared taxi) to reach the terminal. At the bus terminal, look for buses heading to Phunphin District. The journey to Phunphin will take approximately 30-45 minutes. Once you arrive at the Phunphin bus stop, look for local transportation options such as a tuk-tuk or motorcycle taxi to take you to Tha Sathon Hot Spring. It's about a 15-minute ride from the Phunphin bus stop to the hot spring.
Songthaew (Shared Taxi)
From Surat Thani city, you can board a songthaew that has a route to Tha Sathon. You may need to ask locals or the songthaew driver if they go directly to Tha Sathon or if you need to transfer at Phunphin. Once you are in Tha Sathon, inform the driver to drop you off near the hot spring. This option may take longer depending on the number of stops and passengers.
Motorcycle Taxi
If you prefer a quicker and more direct option, you can hire a motorcycle taxi from various points in Surat Thani. Simply tell the driver your destination (Tha Sathon Hot Spring), and they will take you there directly.
