Well our trip started off to James Bond Island. Well that was a horrible Sean Connery impression. However we've headed north off the east side of Phuket Island up to the magnificent Phang Nga Bay. The day trip usually takes eight to nine hours with pickup and drop off at your hotel in Phuket. It is mainly a sightseeing tour including cave exploration, sea kayaking and lunch. And after visiting Koh Ta Pu or James Bond Island, we do get some beach time on Naka Island before heading back to Phuket. Also known as Ao Phang Nga National Park, this marine ecosystem is comprised of 42 islands with amazing limestone cliffs, caves and the craziest rock formations that you've ever seen. That looks like they come from another planet. Well the first stop on our journey is Anak Island. We're going to go for a little tour and see what we see. The next stop on our adventure is Phang Island. We're jumping in a canoe or a kayak and we get a little tour of a really cool labyrinth. In the boat with me is my friend Mustafa. Yeah. I just met Mustafa. He is from Jordan and one day he's going to take me to Petra he said. Right? Yeah. Thank you. So cool. Wow these are so cool. Good, good. And into the darkness we go. Now we're going through this really cool cave here and it's so cool. It's amazing. There are definitely some hidden gems in Thailand and this is one of them. Phang Island on our James Bond Island tour. If you're ever in Thailand check this one out. Hola. Here we go into the abyss. Mother nature. Good job. Good job on this one. This isn't the coolest thing. Pretty breathtaking scenery that's for sure. Well we're just about to get back aboard our vessel and get on with our next leg of the journey. Well we've made it to the infamous James Bond Island. We're just taking the trek over the top to the next little beach where the actual 1974 Man with the Golden Gun had a scene filmed here and therefore James Bond Island. And as you can see we're in an absolute beautiful area of Thailand. Not too many people get to see unless of course they book a tour here to James Bond Island. And voila. Hey there gang it's me Floyd. Guess what? I am in Thailand. Right now I am on James Bond Island where they filmed the 1974 film Man with the Golden Gun.

How about that eh? Wow it smells like people have been peeing right in here. Look at this. Well it's time to say farewell to James Bond Island and we head onward to our next stop. We've gone a bit further north to Koh Phan Yee, a Muslim floating village of around 1,000 local inhabitants. We're stopping in for some lunch and a bit of a look around. You can see Bangalore for rent per night about six or seven hundred baht per night. You can see the school, the criminal school, you have about 130 students. And then see the mosque there, up there see the mosque about 50 million baht. They get money from the government, they help for having a local people, they make construction up there for every Muslim to play if they got. Every day five times Muslim to play from early morning until at night. You can see on the left hand floating football soccer court, you can see from floating football soccer court. Afternoon they play football every afternoon. Sometimes people jump in the water, right? You have to play until you can't do it. They get low tide. About 1.30 water still come up again. They got right now just low tide. All right now our next stop we're going to have some lunch on this beautiful little floating island. It's all made on stilts. Apparently it's a Muslim island and the fella said that there's about a thousand people continue to live here. So we're gonna go around to explore and then we're gonna have some lunch. Sawadee krap. Thank you. Well the last stop on the tour is on this little island and I'll put the name of the island down below. I've forgotten already. And we're here to hang out and have a drink and go for a swim and just relax. And now it's time to head back to Phuket and conclude our trip to Phang Nga Bay. As you can see this was something you don't want to miss exploring the islands in this national park. With day trips available from Phuket, Krabi or Surat Thani you can find an abundance of choices of trips or boat tours to many of the 42 islands here. Just like the caves in Koh Phanak, the kayaking in Hong Island, the remote village of Koh Phan Yee, the beautiful beach of Naka Island and of course the treasure of Phang Nga Bay Koh Tapu or James Bond Island. Well that's it for this video. Thanks for watching. Stay tuned for my next video as I head north to Khao Sok National Park. And remember, wherever you are and wherever you go, go with the flow.
