Phang-nga Bay or Ao Phang-nga National Park was declared a national park in1981. It has scenic views because of a mass of limestone formations scattered around in the sea near the shore. Also, as a result of natural changes; caves and rock formations have been formed. The park is also fertile with mangroves. Most of the islands are uninhabited. Many of them have spectacular caves (hongs in Thai) which you can only reach by an inflatable kayak. Koh Hong is one of the most popular of these islands. This famous Koh Ping-gan, also know as James Bond Island found its way onto the map through its starring role in the James Bond movie "The Man With the Golden Gun".The film starred Roger Moore and Christopher Lee (as the three nippled arch-villain Scaramanga)
