Stop 4
You will go to the main sight of the excursion - the islands of James Bond. It was here that the film “The Man with the Golden Gun” was filmed, in which the famous Agent 007 was in the lead roles.
In fact, there are two islands, not one. The big one is called Khao Ping Kan, which means “island of the sloping cliff”. The second is Ko Tapu, which means nail. At its base, its diameter is about 4 meters, on top - 8 meters, height - 20 meters. From far away it looks like a huge upturned bottle.
5
(SPEEDBOAT TOUR OPTION ONLY) The official name of the village is Panyee. It takes a very small piece of land, and the main part of the houses is located right on the water, on stilts. Seeing this settlement, it is hard to believe that this place serves as a home for more than 1600 people. Muslims live here, who are still called "sea gypsies" because of the nomadic lifestyle in the past. In order to get better acquainted with the local way of life, you can take a short walk through the village and have lunch at a local restaurant.
