All these companies have similar service. Some are better than the others. Good to check the ratings.
The boats leave from SihanoukVille between 7:30am and 5pm.
During the rainy season, July to October, there could be fewer ferries.
Also, during this time, if sailing conditions are not good, (dangerous), the boats will not sail. You could be stuck on an island (or in SihanoukVille) for a day or two.
Typical prices are $14 one way, and $25 two ways. If you have a 2 way ticket, once you’re on an Island, you can usually contact your boat company a day in advance and change your return time.
Easiest way to book and see the schedules is from one of the on-line booking companies. Or just go to the listed companies above and check their websites.
The trip is from 40 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the Pier and the island you are going to / from.
No assigned seating. Get on the boat early if you want to choose your seat.
Some boats have bathrooms, some don’t. If this is important, then ask in advance.
(the 3 hour trip between Kampot and the Koh Rong doesn’t have a bathroom.)
Also, private charters (private boats), available at the Port.
