Phang Nga Bay

Overview

Explore the Limestone Marvels of Phang Nga Bay.
Phang Nga Bay, located between Phuket and the mainland of southern Thailand, is a dreamscape of emerald-green waters and towering limestone karsts that rise dramatically from the sea. This iconic bay is famous for its otherworldly scenery, with over 40 islands and countless hidden lagoons, sea caves, and mangrove forests to explore. One of its most recognizable features is James Bond Island (Khao Phing Kan), made famous by the 1974 film The Man with the Golden Gun. Whether by traditional long-tail boat, kayak, or luxury yacht, a cruise through Phang Nga Bay is an unforgettable journey through some of Thailand’s most spectacular natural formations.

But the beauty of Phang Nga Bay goes beyond the scenery—it offers rich ecological and cultural experiences. Paddle your way through hidden caves at Koh Hong, where the silence is only broken by the splash of your oar and the calls of tropical birds. Visit the floating Muslim village of Koh Panyee, built entirely on stilts over the water, where you can enjoy freshly caught seafood and shop for local crafts. With its perfect mix of relaxation and adventure, Phang Nga Bay is ideal for nature lovers, photographers, and anyone looking to experience the untouched beauty of Thailand’s coastal treasures.
