About this activity

Paddle through Ao Phang Nga National Park's limestone karsts, hidden sea caves, and tidal lagoons on a guided full-day kayak adventure from Phuket. This marine park became iconic after the James Bond film 'The Man with the Golden Gun,' offering a rare chance to explore freshwater 'Hongs'—enclosed lagoons accessible only through cave tunnels—and swim in secluded turquoise bays.

Canoe through the idyllic scenery of Phang Nga Bay on this day trip from Phuket. This national marine park is dotted with dozens of islands, limestone cliffs and caves. With your skilled canoe guide you will discover some of Thailand's most dramatic and beautiful landscapes.

No Visit to Thailand is without travelling to one of the islands on a full day tour. This is a unique experience that takes you into the famous Phang Nga Bay. Made famous by the James Bond Movie - Man with a Golden Gun. The newly discovered sea caves and 'Hongs' are an exciting feature. Hong is the Thai word for room. These Hongs are open-air cliff-lined cylindrical tidal lagoons connected to the outside world only through stalactite-filled tunnels which were undiscovered until the spring of 1990. Of course, there are many secluded beaches here and this trip would not be completed without visiting one for swimming.

 Pick up is also included from your central Hotel.
