Full-day Phang Nga Bay and James Bond Island catamaran tour From Khaolak

Next up is a real treat – a traditional Thai buffet lunch at the floating village of Koh Panyi. Built entirely on stilts above the water, this unique fishing village offers a fascinating glimpse into local life.Afterwards, swap the catamaran for a canoe and paddle quietly through mangrove forests and sheltered waterways, reaching peaceful spots that larger boats can't access. Your final stop is Naka Island, where you can slow the pace right down. Take a swim, stretch out on the soft sand or simply soak up the tropical scenery before cruising back to Phuket.
