Not just abroad, but in Hong Kong, there's a hidden gem and healing little fishing village

Every time I go to Hong Kong, I feel like most of my time is spent in the urban areas, not knowing that the islands of Hong Kong are also so beautiful and comfortable! Here, there is a very primitive ecological environment and natural landscape, where you can experience the local customs, take a boat out to sea, hike, play in the sand on the beach, and get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. If you also like Hong Kong, remember to set aside a day for Lamma Island next time you come. It's a small fishing village with a very slow pace of life, and just casually strolling around the island can feel very healing! ✅ How to get to Lamma Island? You can take a ferry directly to Lamma Island from Pier No. 4 in Central (Lamma Island has two piers: Sok Kwu Wan and Yung Shue Wan). You can start at Sok Kwu Wan and then play all the way to Yung Shue Wan. ✅ Tour Route Lamma Fisherfolk's Village—Sok Kwu Wan Ferry Pier—Tin Hau Temple in Sok Kwu Wan—Kamikaze Caves—Rain Shelter Pavilion—Hung Shing Yeh Beach—Lamma Power Station—Yung Shue Wan ✅ Recommended Check-in Spots 1️⃣ Lamma Fisherfolk's Village You can get up close with some marine animals, such as devil fish, starfish, horseshoe crabs, pufferfish, etc., and you can also fish and pull fishing nets to experience the life of fishermen. 2️⃣ Sok Kwu Wan For dining, you can come here, a quiet and comfortable little fishing village, with a whole street of seafood restaurants. I recommend 'Lamma Rainbow Seafood Restaurant', where the ingredients are fresh, and the portions are particularly large. I love their salt and pepper mantis shrimp, so delicious! 3️⃣ Hung Shing Yeh Beach The water is crystal clear, and the sand is very fine. You can swim, sunbathe, barbecue, play beach volleyball, etc. It's also the place where I feel the most relaxed. 4️⃣ Yung Shue Wan Main Street A leisurely and romantic street with many dining options, coffee shops, bars, and stores selling handmade crafts, very lively. ✅ Tips ❶ Be sure to choose a sunny day, the sea will be particularly blue, suitable for a leisurely stroll, and you will find scenery at every step, with the sea breeze blowing very comfortably and healing. ❷ It's best to prepare or exchange Hong Kong dollars in advance, as many shops on the island only accept cash. ❸ It's completely enough to visit the island's attractions in one day, but also pay attention to the return ferry schedule, the last ferry back to Central is at 23:00.
