You can do this with the AWS Console or one of the commercial tools such as Bucket Explorer.
You need to select the files you want to transfer, then copy/cut
and paste
them into the new bucket. This works for buckets in the same region or different regions.

7Just remember you will pay for the transfer between buckets just as you would for uploading them. – Nux May 25 '11 at 14:23

1But if I have thousands of files they cannot be selected in AWS Console! – Andrey Regentov Feb 22 '12 at 02:52

2@AndreyRegentov - No, in that case use BucketExplorer or Cloudberry explorer. Or do it programatically using the S3 API or SDKs. – Geoff Appleford Feb 22 '12 at 12:23
