Fodor's Expert Review James Bond Island
Phang Nga Bay National Marine Park
Island
Known familiarly as "James Bond island" because the 1974 film The Man with the Golden Gun was filmed here, Koh Phing Kan has fallen victim to greedy tour operators and merchants and become overrun with tourists, though it's still stunningly beautiful. Visiting the island (with a stopover often not longer than half an hour) usually involves a day trip that combines this with several other stops and lunch.
