The speedboat is fast and exciting. It's a great way to take the James Bond Island tour along with all the must-see spots in Phang Nga Bay. You'll see the iconic island (now called James Bond) featuring the distinct 'needle' limestone tower that you likely saw in motion picture “The Man with the Golden Gun”. You'll also visit a Muslim fishing village and take a memorable canoe ride through dramatic cliff formations and mangrove forests.

Lots of fun but very busy.
Full day of speed boat rides and island hoping. Canoeing through caves and mangroves and Lunch on a Muslim floating island, lots to see and do. It was very busy and we went off peak so if you don’t like crowds it’s not for you. We had 2 boys and they loved the experience.
Operator response
It sounds like you had an amazing day filled with thrilling adventures! Exploring caves and mangroves while canoeing must have been quite an exhilarating experience. And having lunch on a Muslim floating island sounds like a unique and memorable opportunity. It's great to hear that your boys loved the experience as well.

A great day exploring a lot of cool stuff!
This is a GREAT tour. There's a bit of waiting around, but you get to see some amazing sites. James Bond Island. A floating village with a floating mosque and a floating football field. Plus a delightful beach for frolicking and beer. All good fun.

Excellent Full day trip, picked up as promised, all the places as planned, speed boat was superb. Our guide was full of fun and very knowledgeable and the camera man worked so hard capturing our experiences without being intrusive. Lunch in the floating island was way better than expected.

James Bond Island
The scenery is extraordinarily beautiful. Well worth the visit and ignore the crowds. Speedboat is preferable otherwise it can take 2 hours or more. Yes they do sell souvenirs but hey - support the economy.
