Hong Island Beach

Enjoy a unique and memorable tour in nature and discover the wonders of bioluminescence on this sea canoeing tour through Phang-Nga Bay departing from Phuket. See the bay's bioluminescent plankton and enjoy the atmosphere of the bay. After departing the pier, we stop at the first sea canoe exploration location at Phanak Island (Diamond Cave / Mangrove Cave), and then Hong island. These areas are best done by canoe so that you can see the rock formations and hidden lagoons close up. Next stop is the iconic Koh Tapu, or ‘James Bond Island’, where the Man With The Golden Gun chose to have his lair in the 007 film and the spot to enjoy the majestic sunset and enjoy dinner at local restaurant. Get ready to see the beautiful bioluminescence after the sunset, the best time to see the plankton. Next comes the optimum time to see the bioluminescence, as the sun sets and evening approaches, the water is usually calmer and light from the plankton is more visually impressive. Here you should be lucky enough to see a mesmerizing display of glowing lights that will create lasting memories. The experience of being surrounded by bioluminescent water is truly enchanting, and this combined with sea canoeing and cave exploring makes for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness the natural beauty of Phang Nga Bay’s waters. Admire the mesmerizing display of glowing lights in the water, where the plankton emit a beautiful blue-green glow when they are disturbed, produced by a chemical reaction within the plankton themselves, which produces the light as a by-product. Experience an unforgettable tour and be immersed in the nature of the bay while admiring a beautiful natural phenomenon.
