Protected Phang Nga Bay is scattered with islands and rocky outcrops erupting from the water. Discover the best of the bay on a private tour, which sees you exploring by land and water. You'll ride on a longtail boat to James Bond Island and Hong Island, then discover the famous Monkey Cave, viewpoints and waterfalls in the afternoon. Boonpong, one of our local guides, says, ‘Some of Thailand's most impressive scenery is waiting for you at Phang Nga Bay. Canoeing through caves and popping out into the hidden lagoons of Hong Island is a memory-making experience.'
The bay is part of by Ao Phang-Nga Marine National Park. Once you sail into it, you'll soon be surrounded by the famous emerald-topped karsts that make Phang Nga Bay so special. You'll cruise past dramatic landforms to Hong Island, where you'll set off to explore the caves by canoe. Then, it's time to discover James Bond Island which stole the show in The Man with the Golden Gun. Disembark here and take some photos of the island and its pretty beach.
After a swim stop at another dreamy beach on the way back to the pier, it's time for lunch at Samet Nangshe, one of the best viewpoints overlooking Phang Nga Bay. Here, you'll dine with dazzling views of this otherworldly seascape. Next up is the Monkey Cave, or Wat Suwan Khuha, home to the 15-metre-long reclining golden Buddha – and lots of monkeys. Finally, you'll chill out and swim at Raman Forest waterfall in the jungle.
