Ha Long Bay in Vietnam has similar landscape, there are others too.

The ones used in Tomorrow Never Dies are in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phang_Nga_Bay, Thailand.

Very similar to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ha_Long_Bay in Vietnam, which is where Top Gear visited and I think Tomorrow Never Dies was originally going to be filmed.

If i remember correctly some of Tomorrow Never Dies was filmed in Halong Bay, Vietnam. I think The Man With the Golden Gun was Phuket Bay, Thailand.

It was on last night, and they did name it as Halong Bay.
