Surat vs Chumphon Tao gateway — Chumphon shorter catamaran 1.5hr Tao only if diving sole focus. Surat Lomprayah 2hr Tao plus connects Samui Phangan same Donsak trip multi-island. Bangkok train bus both reach. Surat more ferry options agencies. Pick Chumphon Tao only Surat Gulf triangle. Full moon Phangan Surat only practical.

Chumphon faster Tao — Surat better if also Samui Phangan same trip.

Train Surat Tao next day — Chumphon would need separate ticket split.

Phangan main Tao side trip — Surat hub made sense one ticket.
