Really beautiful place, I had bought a malaysian ticket by mistake and they upgraded it to foreign ticket at the counter without having to buy again. Food is good and not expensive, good for family and couples.

This time, I used it to travel from Koh Lipe to Langkawi. The meeting time was 2 hours before, but check-in and immigration took only a few minutes, so I killed time at a convenience store. Maybe the meeting time was too early. There was support for Malaysian immigration procedures on the ship, so I felt at ease.

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU BRING RM CASH WITH YOU DURING THE TRIP. The only downside is that we did not brought our wallets with us and our phones had bad signal when we needed to pay using QR code due to poor signal on all islands. We were also not in our swimming attire so we did not do any water activities. Only sat by the beach. On some islands, you will need to pay to use the toilet too. So if you have no cash and have bad signal to pay using QR code, you might need to hold it until you get back to mainland. Special thanks to Mr Rashidi for the tour! Our favourite one were eagle watching. Unforgettable experience!

Would recommend coming as early as you can so that you can meet and greet the Civet Cat (Musang Pandan) whose fur smells like pandan. We got to pet and carry a raccoon as well. The place is clean, not smelly with friendly staff. There's also a musollah. It was raining when we came but it made the experience worthwhile!

Our first trip to Koh Lipe and everything was super easy process from the beginning to the end, the staffs at Jetty guided us everything accordingly. We had a smooth process, you need to go upstairs to level 2 which located beside the Starbucks to proceed with the ferry checkin, fill up the white card and once settled everything, come down to the immigration for boarding ferry and following to the rest of the process. Kindly take note the passport will be hold by the immigration and will return it to us once we reach at the Bundhaya immigration Koh Lipe, baggage also with same process. Overall we had a very clear instructions throughout our journey.
