James Bond Island

This tiny 20 metres tall rocky Islet located in the Phang Nga Bay, Thailand is officially named Ko Tapu (English meaning: Nail Islet). After release (1974) of James Bond's Movie "The Man With Golden Gun", in which this Island was used in back ground of a scene, every one started calling it James Bond Island. The name has stuck and it is now a very popular tourist attraction. Almost all the tourists who visit Phuket make it a point to take a boat ride around this rock.
