The Hoi An to Sa Ky port (boats to Ly Son island) route

For the Ly Son boat, Sa Ky port is about 110 km and 2 hours 12 minutes from Hoi An, 30 km closer than from Da Nang. From Sa Ky in Binh Son, Quang Ngai, the fast boat to Ly Son island takes about 30 to 40 minutes.

The 2.2 hours exclude stops, rush hour and weather.

Counting back from the boat time, and the pickup in Hoi An

Pickup = boat time − the check-in time set by the boat company − about 2 hours 12 minutes in the car − buffer. An illustration, not a fixed schedule: for a 7:30 boat the car from Hoi An leaves at least about 2 hours 12 minutes earlier plus the check-in time, which is still very early in the morning. Your private driver picks you up from your Hoi An accommodation lobby early enough to support on-time boarding at Sa Ky Port for the Ly Son Island speedboat. For old town stays inside pedestrian streets, we coordinate rendezvous at an easily accessible street corner outside the walking boundary. For a hotel in the walking-only streets, where to catch your private car in Hoi An at night explains the nearest pickup points.

Boat times and the return

The route has several fast boats running from about 7:30 to about 15:30 each day; schedules and operating conditions change with the season and weather, so take the boat time and documents from the boat company or the port authority on your travel date. The route rate is one way to the port; the return and the pickup when the boat arrives we will quote and confirm separately. The guide to a car to Sa Ky port for Ly Son island covers all three starting points; see also tips for preparing a long-distance car trip in central Vietnam.

Not included in the rate

  • Not included: fast boat tickets to Ly Son charged by the boat company, personal meals; extra stops, waiting time beyond the free allowance in the Trip terms and the return direction are not included automatically and will be clearly itemized in our quote.
