A delightful meal awaits you onboard our spacious and comfortable big boat as we depart from Ao Po Pier. Our expert lead guides will provide a captivating briefing, unveiling the geological wonders and natural splendor of Phang Nga Bay, along with essential tips for safely exploring its hidden gems.

Our specially designed kayaks ensure your absolute safety and comfort.
Venture deep into Phang Nga Bay's majestic marine limestone karstic islands. Your professional guide will navigate you through "Tidal Nape" sea caves into breathtaking "hongs" – hidden, cliff-lined lagoons teeming with diverse wildlife. Keep an eye out for macaques, water monitors, vibrant kingfishers, mud-skippers, graceful egrets, majestic sea eagles, and soaring brahminy kites.
Next, we journey to the legendary James Bond Island, famed from "The Man with the Golden Gun." Experience this iconic site in tranquility, long after other tour boats have departed. Marvel at the famous rock pinnacle, "Koh Tapu" (Nail Island), and the striking Khao Phing Kan.
Savor a delicious and healthy buffet lunch on our double-decker tour boat, thoughtfully prepared to accommodate your dietary preferences. As dusk settles, prepare for a truly spiritual experience: spotting twinkling fireflies and the magical glow of bio-luminescent plankton (dinoflagellates), illuminating the waters around you.
