Chumphon (ชุมพร) is the capital of Chumphon Province. Like Surat Thani most people only stay here in transit going between Bangkok and the southern parts, including the islands inside the Gulf of Thailand.

Travel to Chumphon & Visa Requirements

The public bus service operates just north of the center of town. However many find themselves taking the train, located to the west.

Various ferry companies operate ferries to, or within reach of Chumphon, and/or a bus service into the center of town. For those who are located in the gulf islands, Chumphon maybe more suitable to transit if you are going to Bangkok as opposed to returning back down to Surat Thani.
