Phang Nga Bay & James Bond Island Speedboat Tour
Explore Thailand’s iconic sea caves, limestone karsts, and emerald lagoons in pure speed and comfort from Phuket.
Why Choose Our James Bond Island Speedboat Tour?
Discover the world-famous James Bond Island (Khao Ta Pu), featured in the 1974 classic “The Man with the Golden Gun.” Unlike slower longtail boat trips, our high-speed catamaran/speedboat minimizes transit time, giving you maximum opportunity to canoe through secret sea caves at Hong Island, visit the world-renowned floating Muslim village at Koh Panyee, and unwind on pristine island beaches.
Tour Highlights
- James Bond Island & Khao Phing Kan: Walk right onto the shore to snap iconic photos of the leaning rock and gravity-defying limestone spire.
- Guided Sea Cave Canoeing: Navigate hidden lagoons and ancient limestone vaults at Hong Island alongside an expert local paddle master.
- Koh Panyee Floating Village: Savor an authentic Thai buffet lunch inside an extraordinary village built entirely on stilts over the ocean.
- Panak Island Exploration: Cruise past majestic rock formations, stalactites, and mangrove forests.
- Beach & Swimming Relaxation: End your day sunbathing or swimming in turquoise waters at Naka or Lawa Island.
