I recently visited James Bond Island in Thailand, and it was an unforgettable experience! The stunning scenery is absolutely breathtaking, with crystal-clear waters and dramatic limestone cliffs that make for perfect photo opportunities. The atmosphere is vibrant yet relaxing, making it easy to unwind and enjoy the beauty around you.
The beach itself is well-maintained, and there are plenty of spots to relax or grab a snack. I loved exploring the area and soaking in the natural beauty—it's a must-visit for any traveler to Thailand. Overall, I highly recommend James Bond Island for its gorgeous sights and enjoyable ambiance. Truly a "shiok" experience!

Travel to James Bond Island and Khao Phing Kan in Phang Nga Province.
Depart from Bangkok heading south to explore the Thai sea in Phang Nga Province. The weather here is very hot, so it's recommended to wear arm sleeves, bring a hat, sunglasses, and an umbrella. Don't forget to apply sunscreen generously.
I must say that the Thai sea remains beautiful as always, no matter how many times you visit. We rented a long-tail boat to explore key tourist spots, including James Bond Island and Khao Phing Kan, the landmarks of Phang Nga.

James Bone island in Thailand 🇹🇭
#traveldiaries
James Bond Island, the most popular and famous nature in Phuket 🏝️🏞️🌊
James Bond Island is known as being in Phuket, but it is actually a small island near Phuket. 🇹🇭
James Bond and Phuket are often associated with one another because you can easily go there on a day trip from a stay in Phuket.
James Bond Island is one of the islands in Phangnga Bay (Phangnga Bay) in mainland Thailand, just across the bridge from Phuket.
In fact, Jamesbond Island was called Koh Tapu in Thai until the release of the 1974 007 movie Golden Gun by Roger Moore.
It was only after the release of the movie that the Thai government changed its name to "James Bond Island" and turned it into a tourist destination.

Ao Phang Nga national park Thailand 🇹🇭
#traveldiaries
Ao Phang Nga National Park is a natural wonderland in southern Thailand, home to stunning scenery and unforgettable adventures.
The park is famous for its limestone boulders rising majestically from the emerald waters, as well as its unique geological formations.
It is a tourist attraction because of the breathtaking sea view.
Paddle through calm lakes like secret caves and visit hidden places that can only be accessed by kayak, which is arguably the best way to get close to nature.
