About this tour
Spend a full day exploring Phang Nga Bay's dramatic limestone cliffs and sea caves aboard a large boat departing from Phuket. You'll paddle kayaks through mangrove-lined lagoons and hidden grottos, swim in emerald waters, and visit the limestone formations that featured in the 1974 Bond film. A Thai lunch and all canoeing gear are included in this 7–8 hour outing.

What to expect
You'll board a sizeable tour boat with other travellers and motor out into Phang Nga Bay. Most of the day is spent in a kayak—paddling through narrow cave passages, gliding past submerged mangrove roots, and exploring tidal lagoons. The famous limestone stack and surrounding formations appear much grander at water level. Expect a mid-morning or midday swim stop at a beach, then lunch served on the boat or island. Afternoon paddling takes you through quieter grottos before the return journey. The pace is leisurely; fitness requirements are minimal, though basic kayak comfort helps.
Good to know
National park entrance (300 THB adult, 150 THB child) is separate. Bring a towel and waterproof bag. Not suitable for pregnant women, infants, or those with spinal or serious cardiovascular conditions. The boat carries many passengers; expect company rather than intimacy.
