AIR: Bangkok Airways flies to Trat from Bangkok which takes about 45 minutes. For reservations, call the Bangkok office on +66 (0) 2265 5555 and Trat +66 (0) 3952 5299-300. For more information and bookings, see Bangkok Air.

AIR-CONDITIONED BUS: First/second-class and VIP air-con buses leave from the Eastern Bus Terminal at Ekkamai, on Sukhumvit Road, serviced by the BTS Skytrain.

ROAD: If you coming by road, one of the most painless ways to travel is order a taxi that will take you all the way to the ferry port at Ko Chang. If you're a good negotiator, you can pay as little as 2,500 baht one way. By hiring a private car or motorbike, you make the decisions as to how and when to travel. The best way out of Bangkok is to take Highway 3 on the Bangna-Trat road until you reach the Chonburi bypass. Continue along this road, or take the tollway, then take the exit for Klaeng on Highway 344. When you reach Klaeng, get back on to Highway 3 again (Highway 3 goes via Pattaya and Rayong, which you don't want). Continue on through Khlung and, from here, about half-way to Trat, turn off on to Highway 3156, the Laem Ngop-Saen Tung road, which will take you along the coast to the ferry ports.

FERRY TIMES: Ferries leave from one of three piers every 30 minutes from 7am to 7pm. Once on the other side, sawngthaews are available to take you to directly to the resort on White Sand Beach.
