Thong Krut Pier (longtails to Koh Taen)

9° 25.2′ N · 99° 57.3′ E

The fishing village of Thong Krut on Samui's south coast is the usual jumping-off point for day trips to Koh Taen and Koh Mat Sum.

Practical

Wikipedia notes the usual route to Koh Taen is a day trip from Thong Krut. OSM maps the Thong Krut pier at this position and the village just east. Longtail charters to Koh Taen and Koh Mat Sum run from the south coast (one 2026 listing quotes from about US$13 per person for the boat ride, plus the Koh Mat Sum landing fee). Useful for crew joining or for a shore run from the Koh Taen anchorage. No cruising-guide data on anchoring off the village: sound carefully on the shallow south-coast flats.
