The next stop will be Hong Island. In ancient times, it served as a refuge for local fishermen, who were sheltering in the local lagoon from rain, waves, and all kinds of bad weather. Nowadays tourists canoe around the island, which you will enjoy. The boat will stop near the island, you will change to rubber canoes and go on a short journey through the caves and grottoes of Hong Island. This is a great opportunity to take a closer look at the rocks, stalactites, stalagmites and enjoy untouched nature.
You will go to the main sight of the excursion - the islands of James Bond. It was here that the film “The Man with the Golden Gun” was filmed, in which the famous Agent 007 was in the lead roles. In fact, there are two islands, not one. The big one is called Khao Ping Kan, which means “island of the sloping cliff”. The second is Ko Tapu, which means nail. At its base, its diameter is about 4 meters, on top - 8 meters, height - 20 meters. From far away it looks like a huge upturned bottle.
(SPEEDBOAT TOUR OPTION ONLY) The official name of the village is Panyee. It takes a very small piece of land, and the main part of the houses is located right on the water, on stilts. Seeing this settlement, it is hard to believe that this place serves as a home for more than 1600 people. Muslims live here, who are still called "sea gypsies" because of the nomadic lifestyle in the past.
