Bangkok port (Klong Toey) handles lighter container and bulk traffic; the major deep-sea container terminals are at Laem Chabang. Shore leave at Bangkok port is straightforward. Welfare provision via Stella Maris Bangkok.
Klong Toey port is in central Bangkok — minutes from MRT Khlong Toei station. This is the most convenient Thai port for shore leave.

Do: use the BTS Skytrain + MRT — Bangkok's transit is excellent. Don't: take unmetered taxis. Watch for: Bangkok port is smaller than Laem Chabang and serves coastal feeder traffic; if your vessel is a major container, you'll be at Laem Chabang not Bangkok.
