One that became widely known was James Bond's island after the release of the movie in 1974. Naturally, many tourists are eager to visit this attraction. In other words, the island is almost always full of visitors, almost any time of the year. So if you don't want to get involved in the crowds of tourists coming from all over the world, but still want to explore the jewel of this region on your own, plan a tour by speedboat or sailboat. Whichever boat you choose, the best views of the island are from the water. Also, don't miss the opportunity to observe James Bond's beautiful island from different perspectives, we guarantee it will be worth it!

Do you need a stop? Anchor the boat to take vivid photos to keep as a souvenir, or for your Instagram, enjoy the scenery and enjoy a day amidst Thai nature. Not far from James Bond Island is the absolutely stunning Koh Ping Ghan beach. Click&Boat recommends making a stop there for sure. After taking a dip with an incredible island view, you can head to the islands of Phang Nga, where you can observe a variety of exotic animals in their natural habitat.

And even more, in Phang Nga province, you can dock your boat and enjoy a tour of the national parks: there really is a lot to see, and the nature, unique to the eyes of any tourist, is stunningly beautiful. Also allow yourself to be amazed by the mystery of the picturesque caves in this area.

The beaches of Phuket: time to dock the boat for some sunbathing

One of the most well-known destinations in Phuket is Karon Beach. It is the tranquility of Karon that attracts lovers of quiet and rest. A quiet and comfortable beach with all the necessary infrastructure and clean sea pleases everyone who comes to spend their time on it. Even if you decide to vacation in another part of Phuket, you can always hire a motorboat to reach the beach directly by water to enjoy its serenity and relaxed atmosphere.

The next must-see destination is Patong Beach, conveniently next to Phuket's main street, Bangla Road. Clubs, bars, restaurants, here you will see all the curiosities for which Thai nightlife is famous. Spend a night in the area to get a taste of Phuket life.

The uninhabited island of Phi Phi Lei is perfect for those who love white sand beaches, cliffs and lush vegetation. In addition, you can feel like a participant in the Last Hero show.

For Thai food lovers or the curious who want to try an authentic Pho Bo, Click&Boat recommends a visit to Ko Panye Island.

It is there that you will experience the main Thai dishes that have gained worldwide popularity: Pho Bo and Pad Thai. Fish is a must, of course; there's nothing like a former fishing village to enjoy the freshest fish and seafood in the country.

There are many typical and authentic restaurants on the island that serve the freshest seafood. Of course, the island also has a large number of souvenir stores, i.e. tourist stores.
