Tourist visa 60 days, extend to 90. Just get a new one every time you go.

I'd say the best is by plane. Even sailing might be adventurous. Take your pick 🙏

Simply apply for a 60 day tourist visa and extend once at the local immigration for an extra 30 days for 1900b.

Apply for a tourist visa before you travel to Thailand. With this visa you'll receive a 60 day stamp when you arrive, and you can apply one time for a 30 day extension. That's 90 days of permission to stay.
