Khao Phing Kan or Ko Khao Phing Kan is an island in Thailand, in Phang Nga Bay northeast of Phuket. About 40 metres from the shores of Khao Phing Kan lies a 20-metre tall islet called Ko Ta Pu or Ko Tapu. The islands are limestone karst towers and are a part of Ao Phang Nga National Park.

There's nothing quite like showing your friends pictures of yourself and your significant other at a remote exotic location that everybody recognizes. They'll be green with envy when you send images from James Bond Island. Of course, the spot was made famous in the movie, “The Man with the Golden Gun”. Strike your best “Bond” pose in front of the James Bond Island sign.

The James Bond Island tour includes a cruise through Phang Nga Bay - about 25 kilometers north-east of Phuket. Admire stunningly beautiful rocky cliffs rising dramatically out of the sea. Paddles kiss the shimmering waters as you canoe through limestone caves and mangrove forests. The Muslim fishing village on Koh Panyee is another attraction on the tour. James Bond Island is the second-most popular tour-experience in Phuket.

A starring role in the 1974 James Bond movie “The Man With the Golden Gun” put the towering limestone islands of Ko Khao Phing Kan and the 66-foot-tall (20-meter) islet Ko Tapu firmly on Thailand’s tourist trail. While boats are forbidden from getting too close to the islands, opportunities for sightseeing abound in the surrounding area.
