This James Bond film shows scenes of Ko Tapu as well as of the surrounding area and as a result the entire Phang Nga Bay area is referred to as James Bond Island.The Ko Tapu islet is itself just a large rocky formation jutting from the sea about 200 meters from the beach. This signature formation is easily recognizable and is one of the most popular day-tour destinations that depart from Phuket.
