Would it actually be possible to make a “ visa - run “ by sea from Satun to Langkawi.

I think there is boats going from Koh Libe to Langkawi.
Answer summary
The feasibility of making a visa run by sea from Satun to Langkawi is not possible at this time due to the current travel regulations. As of now, there are no boats operating between Koh Lipe and Langkawi, and Malaysian borders are generally closed for crossings unless traveling by air. Additionally, Langkawi does not have a Thai Embassy to issue new visas.

And so far for the possibility to use a boat for a visa run.

It is not possible as the island Langkawi is only open for air traffic. As this page is not a travel advice page to visit other countries, I close it down.

Depends on what you see as a visa run.

There is no Thai Embassy on Langkawi to provide you from a new visa.

You need to follow up the rules for entering Langkawi in Malaysia and before coming back the rules to enter Thailand according the Covid regulations.
