James Bond Island
Khao Tapu, is a large limestone column that protrudes from the sea to a height of around 20 metres, located in the Kalai district, Phang-Nga Bay, around 15 km. from the national park. From a distance Khao Tapu resembles a large nail, hence the name (‘Tapu’ means nail in Thai). The lower part of the rock formation has been eroded by the sea and weather conditions and is much slimmer than the top. The site has always been popular with tourists but became even more so when it was chosen to feature in the James Bond movie ‘The Man with the Golden Gun’ in 1974 and it became unofficially known as ‘James Bond Island’ shortly after. Entrance fee : adults 300 baht / children 100 baht Tourists can purchase a one-day package tour from tourist agencies in Phuket or Phang-Nga, including those located at Phang-Nga town pier, Surakul pier and Hin Rom Pier in Takua Thung.
