I had an amazing time on the James Bond Island/ Phang Nga Bay tour in Phuket. WHAT AN INCREDIBLE PLACE! Thailand is really like no other place I have ever been. I had a magical day exploring the islands, and going canoeing in the caves. The day started off on the speedboat en route to James Bond Island. The scenery was gorgeous. The rock structures were very beautiful. James Bond Island was so cool to see in person! We explored the tiny island which was a very unique and beautiful place to see. We went to a small fishing village built on the water for lunch which was INCREDIBLE. The village was home to 2500 people and it was an amazing place, I have no idea how they would have built it!
We went canoeing in Phang Nga Bay which was also a very exciting experience! I LOVED IT. The caves were incredible. Sometimes the entrances to the caves were very low so you had to lie back to get in, and once you got in it was beautiful. Some of the areas were pitch black and others were filled with light. What an amazing experience! We had such a fun day on this tour, the scenery was sensational, the canoeing was beautiful and we had such an exciting time. Definitely a must do when visiting Phuket, Thailand.

Arriving in Phuket, Thailand was so exciting! When we finally got out of the airport (the customs took forever) we got in the bus and headed to our beautiful resort 'Katathani Phuket Beach Resort'. The drive to the resort was eye opening to say the least. We drove through all of the shanty towns and saw the REAL side of Phuket that you don't see on the internet. The electrical wiring was all tangled and really crazy to see. It was really sad to see all the people selling things from their front yards and the lives that these people live.
When we finally arrived at the hotel after a long plain flight and drive it was wonderful to be greeted with cold towels and lychee juice. The resort was BEAUTIFUL! There were stunning pools and beautiful facilities and our room was lovely. It was a real tropical paradise! We had our own beach and were only a short walk away from some restaurants and shops. We were about a twenty minute tuk tuk ride away from Patong and Kata beach. It was good to be a bit away from all of the action as the town was WILD as you will read about in one of my next blog posts! We had a nice dinner not far from the resort and a much needed quiet night in. Stay tuned for more Phuket adventures. |
