Description

We were picked up in Phuket at 10:30 a.m., followed by a roughly 1-hour drive to the harbor where we met our tour guide. The spacious boat accommodated us comfortably alongside 30 other passengers and featured amenities like two toilets and a sun deck. A light lunch was served soon after we embarked, consisting of tuna sandwiches, spring rolls, yellow noodles with chicken and vegetables, and a vegetarian option. Beverages like cola and water were available throughout the day. Our guide introduced us to Phang Nga Bay and explained the day's flexible itinerary, which would adjust based on tidal conditions. Our first stop was at Koh Hong, known as 'Room Island,' where we were led by friendly and humorous paddle guides. They took us through narrow entrances into a labyrinth of hidden lagoons surrounded by rugged limestone cliffs, offering stunning views and photo opportunities. Later, we had a chance to jump from the boat to cool off and tried our hands at paddling, which resulted in a lot of laughter. The onboard atmosphere was lively, with guests from Germany, Switzerland, the USA, New Zealand, and France. As the bay quieted down, we moved on to Koh Panack. Our paddle guide led us through a cave passage into a hidden lagoon reminiscent of Jurassic Park, paddling through mangrove forests and past rugged limestone cliffs. Our next destination was the famous James Bond Rock, which was nearly empty at the time, making the site even more impressive without the usual crowds. Back on the boat, a lavish dinner awaited us, followed by a spectacular sunset that turned the bay a deep red. The special feature of the tour was the bioluminescent plankton. In the darkness, we boarded canoes again to experience the magical glow of the plankton in the water, which sparkled like glowing coins. After a half-hour tour with the plankton, we returned to the boat. On the ride back to the harbor, we enjoyed the cool breeze on the sun deck and admired our photos. We reached the harbor by 8:30 p.m. and were back in your hotel by 09:30 p.m.. This tour offered a unique blend of adventure, nature, and relaxation, leaving us with unforgettable memories of Phang Nga Bay’s hidden treasures.
