Beach Paradise in Hong Kong

While Tai Long Wan may take little leg work to get here, this secluded spot in the east coast of the Sai Kung Peninsula boasts crystal clear water and a beautiful strip of sand, providing tourists and local people a paradise to escape the hustle and bustle of city life in Hong Kong. Tai Long Wan is formed by four amazing beaches – Sai Wan, Ham Tin, Tai Wan and Tung Wan, of which Sai Wan and Ham Tin are more popular with restaurants providing food, beer and room / tent rental services while Tai Wan and Tung Wan are more remote without any man-made facilities around that attract surfers and camping lovers. Tai Long Wan beaches are connected to one another and can be accessed by a bus ride and a-1.5-hour-hike(12KM) from Sai Kung Town.

Exit:

• You can follow the same way back; or for those lazy ones like me:
• Ask the restaurant owners to order a boat at Sai Wan or Ham Tin back to either Wong Shek Pier ($80 per head, 20 mins) or Sai Kung Town directly ($100-120 per head, 30 mins)
• From Wong Shek Pier, you can take bus no. 94 back to Sai Kung Town (30mins)
