One of my absolute favorite beaches in Hong Kong. Black sandy beach, calm waves (and quite…read moreshallow) and gorgeous views (the sunset here is breathtaking). Pui O is also well-known for clam digging - you actually see more and more people come here solely for that. The government really need to start doing something here because the beach is getting dirtier every summer and the clams, honestly, is not fit for eating... The only time I ate the clam, I ended up with a pretty bad skin rash the next day, which took me almost a month to fully recover! So come and chill under an umbrella but leave the clams alone.

I've always felt the Silvermine Bay beach was underrated by most of Hong Kong. When asked what's…read morethe best beach to go to Sai Kung is usually the destination. I understand that being so close to the pier and civilization Silvermine beach is prone to be dirtier than those in Sai Kung or even Chung Sha, down the road, however, of all the times that I've been I have not had a problem. That being said I generally go to hang out on the sand, not in the water. Silvermine beach is in a great location surrounded by some good shops and restaurants. It stretches for quite some distance meaning that there's always a spot that isn't crowded. It also has a volleyball net set up for any one crazy enough to play an outdoor sport during the day. On the way to the beach, from the pier and bus terminal, be sure to swing by 711 or one of the other stores to stock up on supplies as walking back and forth tends to be annoying. By the beach are a series of BBQ pits, an inn, and a resort so food and drinks are plentiful. On top of all the above the beach has be known to host some really fun parties and music festivals. One of the music festivals that I went to went on through the day, the music wasn't the best but everyone who attended were there to have a good time, smile and enjoy the weekend. Speaking of weekends, don't come here! I know not everyone has a freelance job or lives in Mui Wo but on Saturday or Sunday the beach starts to fill up. It's never that bad that you feel like your private space is being invaded and if you do feel that way the next beach is only a ten minute tax ride away!

The beach here in Ma Wan is very peaceful, you can see vehicles, boats, ferries and even the most…read morepopular bridge in Hong Kong of all time, the Tsing Ma Bridge! There are provided seats and a small shelter below the first aid room. The toilets and changing rooms are very clean and spacious, very good facilities unlike the other beaches in Hong Kong. I definitely recommend this beach to fellow tourists if you don't mind paying more transportation fee to come to Ma Wan!

In Hong Kong, outdoor bbq season starts in March, so you can expect to see a bunch of people grilling away. My favorite part of the beach is definitely the promenade area - Castle Peak Bay Waterfront Promenade. It's actually quite long and there's wonderful views of the ships docked by it.
