The Visa Run is the main reason for foreigners to come to Ranong. With both types of visa run, with a longtailboat to Victoria Point or with the aircon boat to Andaman Club, the foreigners are missing out on the attractions of Ranong, on the excellent inexpensive food and on the exceptionally great accommodation.
The procedure with the longtailboat from Saphan Pla is quite straightforward. The friendly touts help with every step, getting a passport photo, buying a perfect Ten-Dollar-Note, filling in the arrival/departure card, acquiring the boat ticket, and guiding passengers to the correct boat. The trip takes about two hours and costs about 800 Baht.
The trip to Andaman Club is most convenient when done with the service of Pon's Place. The additional cost is negligeable when compared to the ease of the visa run. No hassle, no timing problems, payment at the very end, return transfer to the bus terminal. Including the bus ticket from and to Khao Lak this most convenient visa run costs only 1340 Baht.
