The most beautiful beach in Hong Kong (Sai Kung Ham Tin Beach & Tai Long Beach)






This long, remote beach surrounded by rolling green mountains is known as one of the most beautiful spots in all of Hong Kong. It is an expansive bay with long, white sand beaches ringed by hills and headlands. Despite its beauty, Tai Long Wan is never crowded. Because it is hard to get there. The beach is about a 45 minute boat ride from Sai Kung, the nearest harbor. Without a boat you need to get there by hiking over a mountain.


Another way to get there is by bus rides and a beautiful walk along a well-maintained path. We get off the air-conditioned double-decker bus in Sai Kung Country Park and enjoy the views of Long Harbour as we slowly wind our way down to the quiet village of Chek Keng, before climbing up the valley between Sharp Peak and Tai Mun Shan. Just after the crest, you will discover the beaches of Tai Long Wan appear before you.

For lunch, we stop at the middle beach, Ham Tin Wan. Then, we have a swim for a quick slurp, playing football at the beach, etc.

Sai Kung, the "Leisure Garden of Hong Kong", has long been one of the most beautiful place in Hong Kong. Whether you are a tourist or a local resident, Sai Kung, with a total area of 12,600 hectares, will offer you a wide range of enjoyable activities.

You can experience the sublime beauty of country parks, indulge yourself in the excellence of seafood and sunbathe on beaches. I hope that "Travel in Sai Kung", with its detailed information on sea and land travelling routes, will help usher you into a trip of relaxation and rest.
