Phuket – The Islands Tour

23 Sep

We decided to take a tour of the islands around Phuket including the James Bond Island.  The trip started off at 8AM being picked up at the hotel then 1 1/2 hours later we were on the North East side of the island at the pier. The trip begins with a light rain shower and cloudy skies.

We start off  headed for Panak Island. This is a nice small island about 40 minutes away from the pier.  Very nice lagoon in the center of the island.  Of course you have to go through the Bat Cave to get to it 🙂

Yes, they will try and steal you snacks 🙂







We leave Panak Island and take a 20 minute ride to Hong Island.  We will stop here on the way back for an hours swim.





Now its off to Ping-Kan Island ( James Bond Island)


James Bond, straight ahead


By all means bring cash to a remote island





These are the oar boys from the main boat that row us around the various islands


Time to leave and head back to Hong Island for a swim.



They jumped but I missed it



Got it this time


Staff playing around


Swim is over and time for and time for the trek back to the pier then the bus back to the hotel..


It was a great tour but I must say that the James Bond Island was not as nice as the others.
