During the Monsoon season, May-October, most of the resorts are closed, boat services are suspended or limited, and the island goes to minimal activity. Reach the island from the Pak Bara pier in Satun Province and from Langkawi, Malaysia. Seasonal boat routes connecting Koh Lipe with Koh Lanta and from Phuket take more than 4 hours and are expensive.<\/p>\n<p>Koh Lipe offers beautiful beaches and excellent snorkeling and diving, but whether it&#8217;s worth the extra travel time and effort depend on preferences and itinerary.
