James Bond Island Tour
James Bond Island, located in the picturesque Phang Nga Bay, is one of Thailand's most popular attractions. This tour to the famous island offers a unique opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature, visit historical sites, and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the 007 movies.
Panak Island
The first stop is Panak Island. This island is known for its impressive cliffs, caves, and lagoons. Here, you can see eagles, bats, wild monkeys, and reptiles. A canoe journey through the tunnels and caves will provide unforgettable experiences.
Hong Island
The next stop is Hong Island, which in Thai means "room," a name that fully reflects its distinctive features. The caves inside the island truly resemble rooms. You will paddle through mangrove forests and admire the majestic cliffs of Phang Nga Bay.
James Bond Island
The third stop is James Bond Island, or Koh Tapu, which translates to "nail" in Thai. The island gained fame from the filming of "The Man with the Golden Gun" in the 007 franchise. Included in the National Marine Park in 1981, the island is protected from destruction. Visitors can only view it from a boat, as walking on the island is prohibited. You can explore the surroundings of the neighboring Khao Ping Kan Island, located 40 meters from Koh Tapu.
Sea Gypsy Village
Nearby is another interesting attraction—the Panyee Sea Gypsy Village. Most of the houses here are built on stilts over the water. Despite its small size, the village is home to over 1,600 people. The residents, predominantly Muslims, still refer to themselves as "sea gypsies" due to their nomadic past. You can stroll through the village and have lunch at a local restaurant to get a closer look at the local way of life.
* On the large ship tour, the village visit is not included, and lunch is served on board.
Final Stop
The tour concludes with relaxation on the beach of one of the islands, such as Naka or Lava. Here, you can swim, sunbathe, and enjoy the sea. After a full day, you will be taken back to your hotel, leaving you with pleasant memories of your journey through Thailand.
This tour offers a unique opportunity to see magnificent landscapes, immerse yourself in an adventurous atmosphere, and enjoy the beauty of nature.
