Phang Nga Bay found its way onto the tourist map through its starring role in the James Bond movie starring Roger Moore as 007, and is distinctive for its sheer limestone cliffs that jut vertically out of the crystal emerald-green water.
3
Depart by longtail boat from Surakul Pier in Phang Nga province.

Cruise from Surakul Pier by longtail boat to James Bond Island where you will discover the famous Khao Phing Kan, a very high leaning rock with tiny caves. Here you can find stalls selling souvenirs mostly made from beautiful shells and wood. Walk around the James Bond Island and take a photo of Koh Tapu (also known as Nail Island or Spike Island). The limestone rock is around 20 meters tall with a diameter ranging from about 4 meters at the bottom and up to 8 meters at the top (hence the name of nail island).

Stop 6
Panyee floating village is where you will stop for lunch.
