Anantara Koh Yao Yai Launches New Transfer Route from Krabi, Seamlessly Connecting Guests to Thailand’s Untouched Isles and Cinematic Seascapes

Anantara Koh Yao Yai Resort & Villas is now even more accessible with the launch of a new scheduled speedboat transfer connecting the resort to Krabi’s Thalane Pier. The new route joins the existing Phuket service, providing guests increased flexibility and faster access to one of Thailand’s last unspoiled island retreats.
This 30-minute journey through Phang Nga Bay is the beginning of an immersive experience. The route traces the mythical path of the great Naga serpent, as described in local lore to have formed the scattered islands of Phang Nga Bay. Along the way, guests are treated to dramatic limestone cliffs, turquoise waters, and untouched islets—a cinematic introduction to the region’s natural grandeur.

Positioned for Exploration
Anantara Koh Yao Yai serves as the perfect base for cinematic discovery and natural adventure. Guests can explore dramatic seascapes featured in Jurassic World: Rebirth and the upcoming Alien: Earth through the resort’s Scene Unseen yacht experience, which reveals hidden caves, untouched beaches, and secret filming locations only accessible by sea. Guided by a local expert, the aboard the resort’s My SKY luxury yacht blends breathtaking scenery with behind-the-scenes stories and film trivia. On land, curated excursions take guests to Krabi’s cultural and natural icons, including the Tiger Cave Temple and Emerald Pool, and the region’s revered hot springs and island-hopping escapes to Hong Island, James Bond Island, and other filming locations throughout Phang Nga Bay.
Stuart De San Nicolas, General Manager, Anantara Koh Yao Yai Resort & Villas commented, “Anantara Koh Yao Yai sits at the heart of the Andaman, offering a rare balance of seclusion and connectivity. With the new Krabi route, we give guests more freedom to explore the region’s most iconic natural and cultural wonders, all from a serene island base.”
