- Phang Nga Bay. - Then cruise on a comfortable speedboat with 2 or 3 engines (with 20 resp. 30 seats) into the sheer limestone karsts of Phang Nga Bay that jut vertically out of the emerald-green water.
- Hongs of Phang Nga - Make a stop at Koh Hong, and explore the hongs (‘rooms’ in Thai) that lie inside the island. These microcosms, hidden realms rich in unspoiled flora and fauna, are collapsed cave systems open to the sky and surrounded by towering limestone walls.
- James Bond Island - Continue to James Bond Island, also called Koh Ta-pu (‘Nail Island’ in Thai), first found its way onto the international map through its starring role in the James Bond movie, The Man with the Golden Gun (1974). With its signature rocky pinnacle, the entire area surrounding this island is indeed spectacular.
- Ko Panyi - Enjoy a Thai style lunch on Koh Panyee, a remarkable village - it’s built out over the water, with a giant rock monolith guarding its rear. The hundreds of huts, shacks, restaurants and houses where the villagers live are built on stilts over the surrounding shallow sea.
- Koh Panak Cave - After sightseeing of the unique mangrove forest by speedboat, try sea-kayaking, where you paddle sturdy fibreglass boats through caves into the mysterious heart of Koh Panak Island and Diamond Cave.
- Ko Rang Yai - The last stop will be on Koh Rang Yai, a peaceful island about 5 km off the east coast of Phuket with a 1-km-long beach that’s perfect to relax and swim in very warm waters - usually between 25°C to 35°C.
- Naka Island - If the sea conditions are not good enough, you will alternatively make a stop at Naka Island for some beach time.

Awesome Andy and ALP! - Great family day out on the Phang Nga Bay tour. We did canoeing in caves, mangrove swamps, lunch at a floating restaurant and beach time at a private island. Thanks Andy!

An excellent day out - great operator, spectacular islands - A great day out. Lots to see - canoeing was superb. Communication was excellent. The boat was fast and so the children weren’t bored, despite the relatively long first and last legs (up to 60 mins). The operators were professional and well-trained. Only slight disappointment was the food quality at lunch, though the venue was good. Overall, an excellent day out and thoroughly enjoyable visit to some of the most spectacular islands you’ll ever visit.
