Sunny days are a must for visiting! Sai Kung's glassy sea is breathtaking.

If you're traveling to Hong Kong, make sure to reserve a day for Sai Kung! On a good weather day, capturing stunning photos without filters is totally achievable. The glassy sea, jelly-like waters, and blue-green hues make every frame look like a special effect! 🌊 Essentials for your trip: ✅ Picnic mat! Sharp Island and Half Moon Bay Beach are perfect spots to relax and unwind. ✅ Flip-flops or water shoes! Ideal for wading and splashing around. ✅ Sun protection kit: hat, sunglasses, sun-protective clothing, sunscreen, and a parasol. 🚌 Transportation guide: From Choi Hung MTR Station Exit C1 ➡️ Take the 1A minibus ➡️ Sai Kung New Public Pier. 💡 Highly recommend the 1A minibus! Frequent service means minimal waiting, and the ride takes about 30 minutes. 💰 Fare: HK$10.9, with convenient QR code payment available. ⚠️ Route tips: Suggested order: Half Moon Bay → Sharp Island. This way, most of the hiking involves descending stairs, making it much easier! (Although there’s no direct ferry between the two spots, it’s about a one-hour walk.) Today, I started with Sharp Island 🌴 I attempted to hike to Half Moon Bay but gave up after a short distance due to the scorching sun 🥵. Eventually, I opted for the ferry instead. For those with average stamina, taking the ferry is definitely the more relaxed option! 📸 Best photo spots: • Sharp Island's "Pineapple Dam" trail: Stunning views of the sea and sky merging together. • Half Moon Bay Beach: Fine white sand and glassy waters, perfect for Instagram-worthy shots. • Pier fishing boats: Docked boats and colorful buoys exude a charming fishing village vibe. Sai Kung is absolutely stunning on sunny days! Next time, I’ll make sure to bring all the gear and fully explore this hidden gem. For those planning a trip to Hong Kong, save this guide now! ✨

A paradise with clear water and fine sand You need to take a ferry to get there from Sai Kung Pier, which costs $40 for a round trip. Before departure, you should check the Transport Department website to see which ferries are legal. The voyage took about 15 minutes to arrive. As soon as we got off the ferry, we saw that the water was very clear and we were excited. There are lifeguards on duty on the beach, as well as small changing rooms and showers, but there are no shops or retail facilities. It is recommended that you buy all the necessary supplies in Sai Kung first. The water here is clear, the sand is fine, and the sea water is light green. You can clearly see the bottom of the water and the fish swimming. This completely unpolluted place is absolutely rare in Hong Kong.
