Not far from our overhanging rock is another famous group of islands called Chicken Island. The name comes from the shape of the rock, which rises up like a chicken head. Like almost all other islands in this area, it is made of limestone.

The limestone formations in Phang Nga Bay in Thailand are a breathtaking natural sight that attracts tourists from all over the world. The bay, located on the west coast of Thailand, is known for its numerous islands and rock formations that rise out of the crystal clear water, forming an impressive landscape.

The limestone formations in Phang Nga Bay were formed millions of years ago through geological processes such as erosion, displacement, and deposition. Most of the rock formations are made of karst, a porous rock that is common in tropical climates. Over time, water has eroded the rock, forming impressive limestone formations that are found in Phang Nga Bay.

There are many other impressive limestone formations in Phang Nga Bay. Each of these rock formations has its own unique shape and size, and provides a spectacular photo opportunity for tourists.
