From Bangkok

Take the overnight train from Hua Lampong station Bangkok or a budget flight (AirAsia) from Suvarnabhumi airport Bangkok to Hat Yai. There is now a new central Minibus station for all destinations. You must take a tuk-tuk from the train station, about 10 baht in a shared one or 50 baht if you charter one and it is 15-20 minutes away. The ticket to PakBara cost 120 baht and takes about 2 hours. From Hat Yai Airport you can either take a car or minibus limousine to the new Minibus station which is about 15-20 minutes away.

There are Air-con and non air-con public buses from the Hat Yai City Bus Terminal to Pakbara which cost about 70 baht.

Note: City Bus Terminal is located in the southeast of Hat Yai while the new Minibus Station is located between Hat Yai and the Airport. However, it may take a longer time to reach PakBara by public bus.

There is no pier on Koh Lipe:
Local Chao Ley (Sea Gypsies) will come with their longtail boats to pick you up from the ferry. They will take you to any beach on the island for 50 BHT (not included in your ferry ticket!). State clearly to what beach or resort you want to go before entering one of the boats. People tend to be grouped by destination.
