Loh Jark Pier (Koh Yao Yai)
7° 56.0′ N · 98° 34.4′ E
The concrete pier on Koh Yao Yai's southwest coast that serves Prunai, the island's main southern town, and the yachts anchored in Loh Jark Bay.
Practical
Position from the OpenStreetMap pier way (mapped as 'Loh Yak Pier'). The Southeast Asia Pilot says to anchor in 5–10 m off the concrete pier (waypoint 07°55.914N 98°34.324E) and that transport ashore can take you into Prunai for provisions. Wikivoyage mentions Activities Resort near Loh Jak Pier. The White House restaurant and Fasai Beach Bungalow are mapped at the head of the pier. West-facing, so a swell landing in the SW monsoon.
Best for
Dinghy landing for Prunai provisions
Season
Best Nov–Apr; exposed to the SW monsoon
