James Bond Island

On our last day in Thailand, we took a day trip to Phang Nga Bay in the Adaman Sea where the famous James Bond Island is located.  If you want a day trip with some kayaking around and stopping to see stalactites/stalagmites then this trip is for you. If you want a day of swimming and clear blue beaches then it's probably not the day trip for you but I really enjoyed it!

The entire trip gets its name from the James Bond movie filmed there (Man with the Golden Gun).  The actual island they call James Bond Island is tiny! I was expecting like a real island whereas its more of a limestone rock jetting out from the sea?

The kayaking was my favorite part! Some of the areas were so small we had to lay down. We had a guide on the back with us too!

Some of the small spaces we kayaked through...

See Alo and the guide??

There were guys on the wooden long tail boats just selling coconuts all day - ice cold coconuts - my favorite! yummm!

We had lunch at the place below but unfortunately I can't remember the name of it. It was basically a community built on the water and tons of shopping stalls and food/snacks for sale. We ate at a buffet and looked around for a bit and then headed to our last stop, the ice cream cave.

Can you imagine living here with small children?  So many cracks and crevices that lead straight down to the ocean!

Ice cream cave...why the name you ask? Because of the stalagmites formed by the dripping of the limeston in the cave - they think it looks like scoops of ice cream.

Kob kun ka is about the only thing I can ever remember in Thai :) Kob kun ka Thailand for another amazing trip - we hope to see you again someday!
