A very original and pleasant island with sunshine, beaches, waves, mountains and forests, quiet paths. It is only 20 minutes by boat from the bustling and fashionable Central Wharf on Hong Kong Island. It is a paradise on Hong Kong Island. Weekend, vacation, hiking, Lamma Island is a very good place. There are two wharfs on the island, Sokou Bay and Rongshu Bay. The fares are 21 yuan and 17 yuan for non-weekend fares, which take about 40 minutes and 20 minutes respectively. Boarding place is dock No. 4, Central, Hong Kong Island. Sokou Bay on Lamma Island is relatively quiet. Apart from several large seafood stalls, its popularity and residential areas are not as popular as Rongshu Bay. Walking between the two piers takes about two hours to cross the hilly and hilly road on the island without stopping. The mountain road is rugged and stretching, but from time to time there will be four big wheels of hill-climbing bucket cars running through it. The car has no closed cab. It looks like a beach car with a bucket. The driver sits high on the front of the car. There are several steep and dangerous hill roads, which make people sweat for the driver. I think the driver should have had the feeling of a hill-climbing bicycle on the car. There is a good beach in the middle of the two piers, because there are not many tourists. It is suitable for taking pictures, enjoying sunset and being dazed. If you have enough time and love to take steep steps, you are advised to cross the island on foot. Apart from the artificial cement construction, the natural vegetation along the road is original ecology. A long section of the mountain road is near the sea side. The natural landscape is very good, especially under the sunset. It's really pleasant to walk on the mountain road. Tips - "It's better to climb the island at the Sokou Bay pier, and then make a steep step across the outlying island of Rongshu Bay. The consumption of the Rongshu Bay pier is more important than that of the Sokou Bay pier. Economically, there are more choices. Also, the delicious "Yapo tofu flower" is also on the road near Rongshu Bay.

    A fantastic way to spend the day. The hike from one end of the island to the other was very nice with amazing views along the way. The path is well marked and is suitable for people of all ages.

    Fortunate to be there on a good weather with a good hike. The Masculine Rock I wanted to visit was off trail mostly local climb it. Would require track pants as there are lots of bushes and branches. Stopped halfway as I was wearing shorts. Will re-attempt another time.

    I visit Lamma Island once to twice a month. I love hiking there and swimming in the sea, although it can be rocky so I suggest you wear swimming shoes. The beach is very private. I love eating lunch at Lapa. The beef fajitas is my favourite there. Pam, the restaurant owner is a very nice lady.

    This island may seem not picturesque from afar because of the big chimneys. But once you get to the Yung Shu Wan ferry pier, keep hiking to the beach, one can feel the vivid island atmosphere and forget the power station easily.The pier itself is different from Lantau and Cheung Chau, with a hundred meters walk with bicycles hanging along both sides. Then the restaurants scattered among the holiday houses in the main street. Though I cannot see any traditional fishing village left. The island i
