3/5
A nice beach town in Hong Kong. It takes a bit to get there since after getting to Shau Kei Wan station on the MTR train system, you will have to take the bus #9 to Shek O. Shek O beach is not too touristy so you can relax and enjoy the beach. They have umbrella rentals and BBQ rentals, as well as some places to eat near by. Not English friendly, but can manage.

    Shek O Beach is a gazetted beach located facing Island Bay in Shek O, Southern District, Hong Kong. The beach has barbecue pits and is managed by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department of the Hong Kong Government. We got up early to watch the sunrise after a short hike, unfortunately it rained after we arrived on the top, we were still lucky we were able to catch a glimpse of the colorful sky before it poured.

    Shek O is a colorful attraction. Tourists can carry out various water activities, enjoy food in the seaside restaurant and coffee room, check in at the Lover Bridge, and those who like to hike can board Tai Tau Chau and have a bird's eye view of the entire Shek O and Wufen Chau. It is worth visiting.

    Stay away from the hustle and bustle, stroll comfortably in Shi'ao Village, enjoy the local residents to live in the house, so colorful and good~~ walk to the lover's bridge, take a nap, blow the sea breeze and see the waves, very freehand

    A lovely beach that’s easy to get to via public transportation. It’s a lot of fun to sit on the top level of the bus as it winds its way through the mountains to the tiny village of Shek O. The beach has amazingly soft white sand. The waves were quite strong when we went, and not many people were swimming, but the vistas are gorgeous.

    Located in the south of Hong Kong, Shi'ao is home to the richest people in Hong Kong. For example, Liang Luoshi took Xiao Superman to live here, and Li Jiaxin got married here. Tencent's Ma always bought a house here, which is also a symbol of identity, and there is no subway! Usually take the subway to Shaojiwan Station on Hong Kong Island, exit, bus terminal, take Bus 9, go directly to Shi'ao Terminal, get off at the beach, you can see the beautiful scenery, there are many people playing parachute! If you like mountain climbing, it is recommended to get off at Shi'ao Country Park and climb along the mountain road. The signposts are very clear, and the autumn season is especially suitable for climbing! The only Tucao is the weekend peak, back to the urban area, the bus is super difficult, and slow and many people are looking at the stone and Macao scenery.

    Shi'ao is surrounded by the sea on three sides and is surrounded by many peaks. Longji on the top of Shi'ao Mountain was selected as the best urban mountain path by the Asian edition of Time magazine in 2004, which shows how superior the ecological environment here is. Many of Hong Kong's top rich people, such as Bao Yugang's son-in-law, Kowloon Warehouse Chairman Wu Guangzheng and Li Zekai, live there. Before getting off the bus, you can see the magnificent scenery of Shi'ao. surrounded by green trees, it is the vast sea. The mountains are magnificent and the sea is endless. The blue sea water and the white sand beach contrast each other, making the scenery even more beautiful. Unfortunately, I was sitting on the bus, turning sharply, whistling by the edge of the cliff, and the branches beside me were beating against the windows, so I didn't have enough courage to spare my hands to shoot. Finally, I got off the bus, and finally I could enjoy the beautiful scenery. Shi'ao's beach is not long, only about 200 meters. This empty beach has a different kind of tranquility. The sand on the beach is very fine. Walking on the beach is like stepping on a soft carpet. The sea water is clear and you can easily see the shells and weeds in the sea. After playing on the beach, we continued to march towards Datou Island in Shi'ao, where the scenery was more beautiful. Along the way, I found that the village houses here are very European, and the colors are bright, and I feel very petty. After a long walk, you can see a magnificent mansion. Later, you can see that it is actually a temple or a memorial hall built by a big family named Yang. At the end, you will see Datouzhou. What a spectacular view! The waves are beating against the boulders on the shore, stirring up waves. People are still small in the mountains and boundless sea.
