One of the places I really wanted to see on this cruise was Phang Nga Bay and today I got to see it.

We took a hour and 45 minute bus ride to the pier were we boarded a propeller boat. We cruised the bay, had lunch at a floating Hindu village and then headed back to the ship.

This is the type of boat we rode in- notice the prop engine. The boats can kick up a quite big spray and are a bit noisy
Fishermen on the bay- we are enjoying eating the amazing fresh fish
Krast formations- some are famous for the James Bond 007 move- Man with the Golden Gun
Leaning rock- a very, very popular tourist spot- some tours let people disembark but we didn’t stop.
A floating Muslim village, Panyee, where we had a delicious buffet lunch
The first ever floating soccer field- the guide joked that kids learned soccer and swimming at the same time as they had to swim to get any soccer balls that left the field.
