About this experience
Get ready for an exciting trip to the most interesting islands of the Phang Nga National Park. You will see caves with stalactites and stalagmites, reach the emerald lagoon at the center of Panak Island, and visit the Muslim village of Panyee, where sea gypsies live in houses directly on the water. Visit the famous island of Khao Phing Kan, where one of the Bond movies was filmed, and then relax on the cozy beach of Naka Island.
What to Expect
Canoeing to the Island Caves
Enter the fairytale world of thousands of islands, picturesque beaches, and towering cliffs. In just 15 minutes, you will arrive at Panak Island and switch to a canoe to explore its caves and see the inner lake - only accessible at low tide. You will also visit Hong Island, whose name translates from Thai as 'room'. There are indeed many caves here, resembling small rooms from the inside.
'Star' Island and Floating Village
A boat will take you to James Bond Island, where the movie 'The Man with the Golden Gun' was filmed - since then, this place has gained great popularity. In a cozy bay lies the tiny island of Ko Tapu, seemingly floating above the water; you can recreate a scene from the movie or take original photos against its backdrop. Afterwards, we will head to Panyee Island, where a small village is nestled beneath a cliff. Previously, foreigners were not allowed to own land in Thailand, so the sea gypsies who arrived on this island built their homes directly on the bay - on stilts. After lunch, you can take a stroll and buy unique souvenirs. And at the end of the tour, you will enjoy a relaxing time on the sandy beaches of Naka Island.
