Another destination made touristy by a movie, James Bond Island (officially known as Khao Phing Kan) was featured in the James Bond movie, “The Man With the Golden Gun”. Similar to the Phi Phi Islands, there were a lot of inexpensive tours so I figured those would be the most crowded ones. So i had the same idea here but didn’t want to do another sunrise tour, so we opted for a sunset tour ($80, with a company called Seahorse Marine, which I do not recommend). It was nice because we got to have a nice, relaxing, non-rushed morning, and then start our tour. Here was our itinerary for the day:

1. First stop is Panak Island, where we canoed through caves

   

2. After that, we had lunch at Panyee Island, a village built on stilts. 

   

3. Following lunch was the main attraction – James Bond Island. There weren’t as many tourists at this time of day, but our time there was very short and we felt rushed

   

   

4. Afterwards, we discovered Ice Cream cave, named for its ice cream-looking structures

   

5. Finally, we watched the sunset from Naka Island
