James Bond Island blog post now~~ =)
James Bond Island tour is a bit different from Phi Phi Island tour..
No snorkeling here, but canoeing!!
For James Bond island tour, we chose to ride long tail boat instead of speed boat..
The sea wave were much more calm compare to Phi Phi island..
So small boat such as long tail boat are able to move around the islands..
Compare the speed boat and long tail boat,
I personally prefer long tail boat more..
Although long tail boat was not as comfortable as speed boat do, the feeling of riding long tail boat was different..erm...like more tranditional?!lol..i have no idea on how to explain my feeling..If u have chance, choose to ride the long tail boat ya..ahahaha..
Furthermore, the tour with long tail boat is cheaper than the speed boat do..
So, choose long tail boat ya..=P
If not mistaken, James Bond Island tour cost us
700 baht/person (long tail boat)
and
1100 baht/person (speed boat)..
Actually, the tour price will be vary by time/season..
Now is low season, so we get cheaper price..
If during peak season, i think the price may double up..
Anyway,
U can contact Ploy for more information..
Try to bargain for the lowest price..ahahaha..

My boy and the uncle that guided us..
He is very friendly and nice too..
He can speak a little bit hokkien..
Great, at least we still can communicate with him..
He did asked for some tips, so we gave him 60 baht..
The only money that leave in the pocket..lol
That uncle said the fruits on the trees can be eaten..
But i got no guts to try it..
I was so afraid to get stomachache during travelling time..lol
This boy was very happy..
That uncle also proved to us that the water level is actually very shallow..
Time to test your creativity and imagination..
This cave looks like what?
Well, it's a big head..with a big nose and mouth..
Saw his teeth?!
He got a bad bad teeth..lol
Spot the pig nose? oink oink...
Try to search for a horse's head..

Laid down again..
This space is a bit small..
But the view is very nice..
Even though only rocks and plants surrounding us, the scene in the cave attracted me a lot..
