Welcome
TO THAILAND’S MOST STUNNING
FISHING DESTINATION.













The Destination
Discover Phang Nga – Thailand’s Best-Kept Secret
Tucked away between the world-famous hubs of Phuket and Krabi lies Phang Nga – Thailand’s hidden gem. A place of raw natural beauty and cinematic landscapes, it remains one of the country’s most untouched and awe-inspiring destinations. Surprisingly, many visitors to Thailand have never even heard of Phang Nga—despite it starring in iconic films from James Bond to Star Wars.
Welcome to Exotic Fishing Thailand – Where Adventure Meets Paradise
Our resort isn’t just a fishing destination—it’s a front-row seat to some of the most jaw-dropping scenery on Earth. Nestled within Phang Nga’s national parks, Ao Phang Nga and Khlong Khanom, Exotic Fishing Thailand offers a setting that’s as thrilling as the catch. With over 500 square kilometers of lush landscapes, dramatic limestone cliffs, and crystal-clear waters, this region boasts some of the world’s most recognizable natural wonders.
Moments from the Movies – Literally
You’ve seen Phang Nga before—even if you didn’t know it. The legendary James Bond Island is just a 25-minute trip from our resort. The iconic Maya Bay, immortalized in The Beach, is a short boat ride away. And the towering limestone karsts surrounding the property have even played host to scenes in Star Wars.
Why Phang Nga? Because It’s More Than a Destination—It’s an Experience
If Phang Nga were a person, it would be a global celebrity. But for now, it’s your personal paradise—unspoiled, unforgettable, and waiting to be discovered.
Come for the fishing. Stay for the adventure.
THIS ENVIRONMENT ENSURES THAT YOUR EXPERIENCE OF FISHING IN THAILAND WILL BE REMEMBERED FOREVER, BEFORE YOUR LINE HAS EVEN RIPPED OFF YOUR SPOOL.

Angler's reviews - In their own words
Heaven On Earth!
MASSIVE fish, mindblowing surroundings, delicious food, a swimming pool, and of course Mike and the team, honestly, you couldn't ask for a better fishing experience and holiday. I have been twice now, and I can't wait to return for a third visit to this magical venue. Set in the countryside of Phang Nga, mountains tower around the outskirts of the venue, almost guarding this wonderful fishing oasis, and providing the most magical backdrop for catch pictures. Vibrant plants and flowers are set around the outside, making it more than just a fishing lake, it's so picturesque. You only need to flick through the gallery to see the fish of truly monstrous sizes, fish of a lifetime; we caught arapaima, siamese carp, garfish, redtails, rays, chao priya catfish and more. Mike and the team cannot do more for you, they really are an amazing bunch of people there to make your stay a memorable one. The accommodation is spotless, the food is delicious and there's also plenty to do around the resort if you wanted to give your arms a break from the rod-wrenching action; we visited elephants, temples and some of the local towns. Honestly, it is the trip of a lifetime!
Amazing place, Just Amazing..... One of my favourite places on Earth
I have visited Exotic fishing Thailand many times now with friends and family and every visit has been a very special experience. In recent visits I have been coming with my son and he loves this place as much as me and is becoming quite the young angler. Everything about the place is Amazing, Mike the owner, the staff and the guides are all so friendly, helpful and very professional. The food is excellent and presented beautifully, The accommodation is spacious, very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The lake and setting is just stunning and then you get to the fishing...... what can I say, well the fishing is out of this worldJust AMAZING
Amazing set up. Wow what a weekend! I can highly recommend EFT as your premium fishing destination for both a relaxing and action packed fishing holiday. From arrival to finishing up and everything in between was super.....So now the fishing. We caught over 40 fish in 2 days. 6 Arapaimas, Chao Praya catfish, Alligator fish, Amazon Red Tail, Albino Pacu and some other impressive species which I forgot the name of. Staff and service is super. Well organised, attentive, friendly. Great food and drinks from the restaurant which they can deliver to your Sala at the lake and yeah AMAZING fishing.
Perfect Fishing
Fishing and stayed four days and nights, we catch 5 Arapiama the first day and some catfish, Arapaima up to 120kg, the next day 3 Arapaima up to 100 kg, some different catfish and one Siamese carp about 30kg, the accommodation was terrific with nice rooms an a wiew over the lake, everything very nice and clean. Must be 5 stars !!!
Boatman Baitboat made the difference
After a discussion with the owner Mike I decided to rent one of the Boatman Bait boats . This made all the difference in delvering bait to the same spot every time and resulted in some amazing catches . My favorite being a Juilens Golden Carp. This was the second visit for my partner Amanda and I and we will be back .
Yet another amazing trip to my favourite lake in Thailand
and it certainly didn’t disappoint, with around 14 Giant Siamese Carp, alligator-gars and a few red-tails. That said, the crowning moment was the Chao Phraya that arrived at the very last minute on my last day fishing (bang on 7pm as I was about to take the rod out of the water)… 45 minutes later a new PB. My thanks to the whole team at EFT!
