If the weather is good, I think the speedboats still go in low season.

I wouldn't like to chance it though as its a long trip and if you suffer seasickness and the waves get up it won't be a nice trip.

Loads of shops /stalls selling day trips around the town.

in july 2006 there were ferry boats at chalong pier when i returned from a day trip....can't recall if they were catamarangs

, thank you for the links

So those boats are pretty big ones (Capacity over 200)?
They are like ferry-boats? I think biger boats are better if the ocean happens to bee stormy... Am I right?

The boats leave from Fishery Port + Tiensin Port + Rassada Port + Thaisako Pier ... These piers are on the east coast? Near Phuket Town?

The ports are on the east coast near Phuket Town, the ticket usually includes transport to the pier

Do you want to go for a daytrip or do you want to stay some days in Phi Phi?

I think we will want to stay 2 nights on the Phi Phi...
Just relaxing. And maybe visiting some near-by islands.
What islands U recommend to visit near Phi Phi?

Hi Spacecow
I would highly recommend Krabi

Krabi is divided into eight districts : Amphoe Muang (Krabi Town), Khao Panom, Khlong Thom, Plai Phraya, Ko Lanta, Ao Luk, and Lam Thap and, Nhua Khlong.

Krabi=heaven on earth
