Hoi Ha Visitor Centre is located in a beautiful woodland area in Sai Kung West Country Park, close to the Hoi Ha Wan Marine Park which is rich in marine life. The center includes an exhibition hall, reception and public toilets. The Exhibition Hall displays information about Hong Kong's coastal protection areas and their marine ecological resources, underwater history and culture, and surrounding underwater areas to the public. I had wanted to come here before, and after seeing so many blockbuster movies shot in Jimei, I finally found a chance to go and see it! The center uses a simple wooden design to match the green natural environment to create a quiet and comfortable small courtyard, full of a strong Japanese atmosphere. In addition to the Japanese courtyard, bamboo forest, wooden screens and other check-in spots. The surrounding area is not very big and it only takes about an hour to visit. You can also visit here on weekends. 📍Location: Undersea Visitor Center 🕰️Time: Exhibition Hall 0900-1600, Reception 0930-1630 (Closed on Tuesdays) The lawn and public toilets are open 24 hours a day 🚘How to get there: Take the No. 7 minibus from Sai Kung Pier (get off at Hoi Ha Visitor Center) and inform the driver before getting on the bus. #LocalTour #WeekendTour #Saigon

The suburb to be introduced this time is Hoi Ha Wan, located in Sai Kung West Country Park. Located in the north of Sai Kung, Hoi Ha Wan is one of the first coastal parks in Hong Kong. Hoi Ha Bay is an area of ​​high ecological value with a high degree of biodiversity. This is because Hoi Ha Bay has a natural barrier that blocks the influx of seawater impurities, making Hoi Ha Bay one of the coasts with excellent water quality and less affected by human pollution. Due to the clear water and high biodiversity, many water activities can be carried out here, such as canoeing and snorkeling. Hoi Ha Wan is one of the few places in Hong Kong where visitors can enjoy close-up views of corals. In addition to snorkeling to admire the precious corals, visitors can also interact closely with many underwater creatures. Visitors who do not want to go into the sea can also choose to go to the Jockey Club HSBC World Wildlife Fund (Hong Kong) Hoi Ha Wan Marine Life Centre, which is a 10-minute walk from Hoi Ha Wan Cafe, to ride Hong Kong's first specially designed glass-bottom boat. Take a glass-bottom boat under the guidance of conservationists to explore the coastal environment and ecology of Hoi Ha Wan Marine Park and appreciate the rich and unique ecology of Hoi Ha Wan. While visitors are enjoying the rich natural ecology, they are also reminded to leave no trace and protect this unique coral community and self-sufficient ecosystem under the sea. Transportation: Take minibus No. 7 from Sai Kung Pier, get off at the terminal, and walk about 15 minutes #Good Places for Hiking

Hoi Ha Wan Marine Park is one of the first marine parks in Hong Kong. It was established in 1996 and is located at the northern end of Sai Kung West Country Park. This time I visited Hoi Ha Wan and visited the newly opened Hoi Ha Visitor Center to get to know Hoi Ha Wan easily~ The visitor center is innovatively designed with an open style that integrates the building into the natural environment. The concept is derived from traditional villages. The reception desk, multi-purpose room and administrator's office are arranged in different locations according to the terrain and environment. The large lawn in the middle can be used as a resting place, where you can rest and have a picnic under the shade of the trees. With simple cement walls, metal with glass, bamboo forest, etc., it has a Japanese contemporary architectural style. Undersea Visitor Center Address: Hoi Ha Road, Hoi Ha Bay Coastal Park Opening hours: 9:30am to 4:30pm (Exhibition hall open until 4pm, lawn and public toilets open 24 hours, closed on Tuesdays) #wintertravel #greatoutdoors #popularexhibitions #localtravel

親子活動推介：海下灣珊瑚之旅 #睇魚 #睇珊瑚 #學環保 最近去咗一個好有意思嘅活動，好玩之餘，仲長左唔少新嘅知識，亦加深咗大小朋友嘅環保意識❤️ 講緊嘅係由 @wwfhk 世界自然基金會舉辦嘅海下灣生態導賞團。 活動喺海下灣海洋生物中心進行，報名參加活動之後，可以加錢搭接駁巴士由西貢市中心入去海下村（走嘅時候亦都有接駁巴士），令行程更加舒適方便😁 去到海下村口，就要落車行大約20分鐘入去海下灣海洋生物中心，沿途都係容易平整容易行嘅石屎路，而且風景都唔錯，海下灣就係你身後🤩！途中有經過一個石灰窯遺跡，導師亦有簡單介紹。 到達中心之後，導師會有簡單嘅介紹，講解下海下灣嘅生態，同埋介紹吓各種珊瑚，等大家知道一陣間搭船嘅時候會睇到啲乜嘢！ 之後稍事休息、食少少野、小朋友着好救生衣就準備上船啦 🚤 ~ 參觀當日，陽光唔算猛烈，所以水底嘅能見度都只係一般，但係已經睇到好多珊瑚、海參、水母同埋魚仔。本身我哋以為香港水域冇乜嘢睇，點知原來導師話香港水域嘅珊瑚種類其實同加勒比海差唔多！！！ 只不過可能因為環境問題，香港水域嘅珊瑚色彩就冇咁鮮艷～ 玻璃船會喺三個地方飄浮，等大家慢慢睇。我哋對住張圖卡，喺個海度搵😂 成績都唔錯：扁腦珊瑚、蜂巢珊瑚、牡丹珊瑚、鹿角珊瑚、角孔珊瑚、大黑角珊瑚、海膽、海參、黃尾石剎魚等等👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 喺船上逗留45分鐘之後，就係時候返去中心，學習一啲海洋保育嘅知識。導師會播放影片講解塑膠對海洋嘅傷害，同埋間接對人嘅傷害🤦🏻‍♀️ 影片當中垃圾山嘅場面非常震撼，真係會令人好好諗吓點樣源頭減廢，減少使用塑膠，努力啲為環保出一分力。成個活動帶出咗好多資訊，但導師Jason哥哥嘅講解生動活潑，大小朋友都唔會覺得悶👍🏻 活動嚟到呢度已經圓滿結束，之後大家就行返出去村口，搭接駁巴士出返西貢（村口亦都有公共小巴去西貢，但係好多人排隊😅）。 係咪好想參加活動呢～ $200/位，五歲以上就可以參加，大小同價。 💡 - 海下灣比市區清涼，記得帶件風衣。 - 海下灣海洋生物中心冇食物補給，要自備小食乾糧；有免費水機，可以自備水樽裝水 - 建議加$60乘搭來回接駁巴士，方便啲又舒舒服服 - 保育郊野，山海不留痕✅ #nationalpark#familytravel#seasidephotoguide#naturalwonders

Starting from the center of Sai Kung, take a shuttle bus into the Sai Kung Country Park controlled area. From there, walk along the coastal path for another 10 minutes to reach Hoi Ha Wan Marine Park, operated by WWF. The park covers an area of 260 hectares. This bay has the highest concentration of coral reefs in Hong Kong, home to over 60 species of coral and 120 species of fish, making it incredibly diverse in marine life. Near the shore, there is an exhibition center that introduces marine life, and you can also view underwater creatures from a glass-bottom boat. On holidays, many people come to this bay for snorkeling, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding. It is a great place to bring children to learn about the ocean.

A place that satisfies the body, mind and soul and allows you to take a break from your busy life. Ask yourself how long it has been since you stopped to observe the plants and trees around you? Coming to Haixia is like going to a hot spring hotel on a mountain in Taiwan. I really like the architectural style of the visitor center. It is simple and low-key and blends with nature. The dark brown wood is permeated with a hint of afternoon sunlight. The overall lines are very neat and have a bit of Zen. Take minibus No. 7 from Sai Kung Pier Bus Station to Haixia Terminal and walk for 5 minutes. On holidays, there is a minibus every 25 minutes and 55 minutes. The last bus is at 18:55. It is recommended to go in the afternoon to seize the time when the sun shines into the building. Note that the exhibition hall is only open until 4 pm, but there is no closing time outside~ #GlobalTravel

After sitting in the office or at home for too long, it is inevitable that you want to see the scenery and do some exercise. Sai Kung Hoi Ha is a good choice! Personally, I tried to go to the beach, but there were many people and many boats in the sea. But it’s different under the sea, there are few people, the water quality is healthy, when you stop and listen when you are not boating, there are only the sounds of nature, and the whole person is relaxed 🧘🏻♀️
