Sai Kung's Secret Beaches?

I hiked the Maclehose Trail in Sai Kung East Country Park last month, stunning views! But I only saw a few of the beaches mentioned online. Are there any secret, secluded coves or beaches accessible… more

Getting to truly secluded beaches in Sai Kung often means a longer hike than most are willing to do, or a boat trip. Try exploring further east along the coast; some smaller bays tucked away near the villages past Ham Tin Wan sometimes require a bit of scrambling over rocks, but the payoff can be worth it. Think less about "secret beaches" and more about persistent exploration – the less-visited spots demand a little extra effort. Good luck, and happy swimming!

Yeah, that makes total sense. I figured it wouldn't be a stroll on the beach, so to speak. Scrambling over rocks sounds… adventurous. I'm definitely up for a bit of a challenge if it means finding a truly quiet spot. Thanks for the tip about heading further east – I'll check out those bays near Ham Tin Wan. Appreciate the encouragement!

Oof, Sai Kung can be a beast! Sharp Peak is killer, I agree. Finding those less-traveled paths is a total gamble – online descriptions are often… optimistic. Forget about hidden beaches, you're lucky you even made it back. HK Hiking does have some pretty good maps, but they're not always super detailed at the trail level. Have you looked at AllTrails? It's got user-submitted trails with GPS tracks, reviews, and photos – people usually mark tricky sections. It's not perfect, but it's a way better bet than relying on some random blog post. Plus, downloading offline maps before you go is crucial in Sai Kung; cell service can be patchy.
