Absolutely top fishing!!! This is by far the best days fishing I have had in Thailand , I had a great day catching multiple species of fish up to 100lb+!! Arapaima, Siamese carp, red tail catfish...........this fishery is the best value for money fishery in Thailand as you can buy a day ticket for as little as 1300 baht per day! The manager Barry is a top guy and will help you with anything you want. 5 stars all the way to this fishery!

Definitely worth a visit, the lake that danny has built is beautiful and the fish are top quality! Fished there for one day and did not get a moments rest! We lost count on the total in the end but it was 20+. Great food and hospitality also from all the staff. Cannot fault this place!

Phang Nga is famous for spectacular scenery with limestone cliffs rising out of green water. There are caves, lagoons and tiny secluded beaches awaiting discovery.

Phanga Nga Bay is a visual treat for all your senses. A boat trip through the waters to various islands in this Bay is a must do activity. I did a big-boat tour through BJ Canoe agency and they take you to various islands like James Bond island, Hong Island, Panak island etc. Kayaking through the shallow waters of this bay is an memorable experience. Though it's a typical touristy route, it's still a great experience to witness the islands and the magnificent limestone rocks emerging out of the sea.

We went there first with our son and grandsons during the Flower Festival and were amazed at all of the many colorful flower displays. The next week just the two of us returned. While the additional flowers from the Festival had been removed, the gardens were still just as beautiful. It's a great place to rest after a long walk in the city.

Take a walk through unique mangrove forest on a wooden footbridge, easy to walk and well maintained. Entrance is free. It is surprisingly clean so tourists seem to respect this ecosystem. Signboards help you to orientate and give informations about the fauna. It is a round trip and on your way you pass a observation tower which is located at seaside. You have a wonderful view on the bay and its surrounding mangrove forest. Near this tower you also find kajaks stationed which offer trips to the seaside. We did not do that this day as a very cold wind was blowing. Not many parking lots, better come during the week, weekends and hollidays it may be crowded. Good to combine with a visit to nearby located "sea farming demonstration unit".

We did a full day lake excursion with guide with a group of 19 people in 2 vans - The ride from the hotel area of the National park takes about one hour with a bathroom / store break on the way - Long tail excursion (1hr) through the lake system with rock and mountain cliff formations getting more impressive progressively - Lunch stop at a floating resort. Food was very good and portions impressive - Kayaking - Long tail boat to a hiking trail - Our guide pointed out a lot of interesting things on our trek - At end of the hiking trail, a bamboo boat ride (neat) across a small lake - Trek up a steep set of stairs to a really impressive medium size cave where the stalactites sparkle - Return to hotel via trek, long boat, then van Hotel pickup 08:30 and arrive back at hotel around 18:15 Recommended to bring: - Quick dry towel or regular towel - Camera - Bathing suit - Hat for shade - Mosquito repellant - Sun screen - Dry bag for camera (store stop does sell them) - Sturdy sandals with straps or hiking shoes you don’t mind getting wet - Socks!! At least medium length if you want to minimize the chance of getting a leach on you Safety: - The long tail boats are fully equipped with life vests which you must wear - For the bamboo boat ride across the very small lake to the cave, there was only one life vest per boat - For most of the large lake system, there was zero cell phone service for the mainline carrier I was using and I didn’t see anyone else able to use phones. Then on the longtail boats I didn’t see the crew have any portable radios, so I’m not sure how they communicate in an emergency situation

Semi-strenuous hike/climb up, and then down, with a beautiful payoff. (And then up and back down on return.) Be prepared to get dirty, even on a dry day.
