Search Surat Thani Flights

Surat Thani officially means "City of Good People", but it should be called "Gateway to Southern Thailand". Eat, drink and play in a fantasy world on the popular Gulf of Thailand islands Koh Samui and Koh Phangan, then discover tasty street food and colourful temples in the city. “Thailand” might as well translate to “ultimate escape”.

Getting Around Surat Thani

You can arrive in Surat Thani by bus, plane or train; the train from Bangkok is popular, as are flights to Surat Thani International Airport (URT). Be sure to book Surat Thani accommodation and explore the city, then head to Tha Thong Pier and ferry to the islands. Once you’re settled, you’ve got more options than there are palm trees. Hop in the back of a songthaew, take a ride on a scooter or book one of Wotif’s car hire options to travel in air-conditioned bliss.

When You Land…

The scuba diving schools of Koh Tao are an early-bird destination, so book Surat Thani flights that land in the morning, and get in the water already!

For the fashionably late, aka afternoon arrivals, it doesn’t get any better than the warm sands of Koh Samui holidays —stretch out and take a nap in the sun.

And party animals, we know why you’re here. Sleep on the plane and go straight to Koh Phangan for its legendary Full Moon Parties.

Live Like a Local

Your frosty beverages will still be there when you get back, so spend an afternoon at the local market instead. Check out giant, spiky durian fruits and bite into soy-fried grasshoppers—with sugar-coated scorpions for dessert. Too local for you? Don’t worry: there is plenty of other grub for you to try that doesn’t have multiple legs. Finish your meal, then pick up a new pair of sunnies and get back to your beach chair.

Thailand’s largest province has something for everyone, and Wotif’s cheap flights to Surat Thani leave you plenty of cash to pursue your dreams. If that just means napping on the beach all day in between beverages, well, that’s none of our business.
