Hong Kong Beaches and Parks

Sand and sea are just the things you need to spend a full, relaxing day. Deep Water Bay, Repulse Bay, and Shek O are just some of the lovely beaches that dot the coast of Hong Kong. For a quieter and more secluded atmosphere, make your way over to one of the outlying islands, such as Cheung Chau, where unique rock formations and wonderfully fresh seafood await you at the seaside restaurants over the water.

For such a developed city, Hong Kong has a surprising number of country parks teeming with wildlife. You can go birdwatching at the Mai Po marshes: a very well-known spot where the splendour of resident and migratory birds will hold you enthralled. Pink dolphins await you, too, in the waters off Lantau island. Read more...
