James Bond – Phang Nga

Explore the stunning nature of Phang Nga Bay… Learn more about ancient civilizations, the amazing nature and witness the astonishing scenery. Experience the unique caves that are hidden amongst the beautiful limestone cliffs.

We start our journey on the water the traditional way – by one of the beautiful decorated Thai longtail boats. We will drive along the green mangrove jungle, which is amongst others habitat of lizards, snakes, monkeys and different bird species.

Passing by a fascinating karst landscape we will reach the worldwide famous James Bond Island, from which you will have the perfect view on the most popular limestone of that area. Ko Tapu, the James Bond Rock, is a common tourist attraction since the release of the movie “The Man with the Golden Gun” with Roger Moore as British secret agent 007.

After a quick stop we will move to a canoe station. There you can lay back and enjoy nature, while an experienced paddle guide will take care of you. He will take you close to hundreds of year old stone formations, to caves and mangroves.
We will continue our tour by visiting a fishing village build on pillars in the water.

The sea nomads living here will warmly welcome you to some tasty Thai lunch. Full and satisfied you can take a short walk to discover the village and culture of the inhabitants. You might also find some nice souvenirs for yourself, family or friends.

Later, we are going back to the mainland and by minivan to Phang Nga Park to round up a beautiful day of culture with a temple and caves.

Sometimes you can also see wild monkeys there.

Be careful, they love to steal a tourist’s food.

James Bond – Phang Nga
Our guide Volker was very informative, and the driver too was amazing (saved us from a head on crash by swerving to miss the other crazy driver coming the other way) We were a small group of 8 with another young family of 4 - so quite a personal tour It was a very packed itinerary. We all enjoyed the sea kayaking and visiting the floating village, really nice lunch too James Bond island was as expected - quite touristy, but still a great memory We also visited a Thai temple and wild monkey's in a park on the way back - all in all very good value for money and with an excellent guide Thank you Khao Lak Land Discovery From The Smith family - Jersey

Absolutely brilliant tour
Absolutely brilliant tour, Volker our tour guide was very knowledgeable about all the places we visited. James Bond island, the floating Gypsy village, canoeing through mangroves, seizing monkeys and the visit to the Buddhist temple was just the best way to spend a day.

Heel mooi!
We hadden een erg leuke dag naar Phang Nga baai en naar James Bond eiland. Het beste was de lunch op Koh Panyee en de rit met de traditionele thai boot.

This is just a thank you to the staff at the Khao Lak Land Discovery office
This is just a thank you to the staff at the Khao Lak Land Discovery office that helped us book a tour for our last day of our holiday. This was our second visit to Khao Lak the other in 2014. This holiday has been a write off weather wise with rain every day for the 2 weeks we have been here which is highly unusual. We felt like we needed to do something before heading home but as circumstances have conspired against us already in another twist my husband got extremely ill with raging fevers, headaches etc, we even had to get the hotel staff to change our bedding as it ended up saturated in the middle of the night. I returned to the khaolaklanddiscovery office to tell them of our plight and they refunded our money in full and only wished us well. Not all tour operators are this helpful or understanding based on our previous trip. If anyone reads this I can assure you this company is of the highest regard and we will be using them when we visit Khao Lak again next year. Many thanks

General Information about Phang Nga Bay

Phang Nga Bay is a UNESCO World Heritage and has geologically similar features to Vietnamese Halong Bay. Limestone rocks are evidence of long past coral reefs. And through ebb and flow caves and grottes have been eroded. Nowadays one has access by canoe, finding a world of bizarre limestone carsts, dolines and a vegetation searching for hold along the cliffs. Altogether the national park (1981) includes 42 islands with a total area of about 401km². The water at Phang Nga Bay is just a few meters deep and comparatively calm.

Moreover, world-famous Koh Panyee, a 300-year-old fishing village build on stilts, can be found close to a marine needle in the middle of the sea. About 2000 people call it their home. Ko Tapu is the most famous rock, better known as James Bond Rock. It became famous due to the movie “The man with the golden colt” with Roger Moore as 007.
