Perhaps the best day trip on Phuket Island - If you have to choose one tour, pass the Phi Phi and go to James Bond. Either way you'll end up sunning/snokeling on the very same Island in the afternoon - all the boats (with all the company's) go there. But on the James Bond Tour you'll see the Mangrove Forests, Lunch at a Muslim fishing village built on stilts above the water, see the amazing landscapes and beautiful blue waters of the islands, and snorkel. We went on 3 boat tours with 3 different company's. They were so similar, no real difference in ammenities - but the James Bond tour stood out. Phi Phi Island is further out to sea and even in the calmer morning waters it can be a very jarring trip. Be careful if a storm is forcasted - your inners & back could be hurtin later. James Bond Island is amid the intercoastal waterways and therefore more protected from the weather and rough sea.
