Big Wave Bay at Sai Kung consists of 4 beaches: Tai Long Sai Wan, Ham Tin Wan, Tai Wan and Tung Wan.
Together with the Sharp Peak located to the north of Tai Wan, this place is considered as one of the “4 Wonders in Hong Kong”, and the best surfing and camping destination in summer.
Maclehose Trail Stage 2 passes Sai Wan and Ham Tin Wan, where there are Sai Kung villagers selling food and beverage, and renting surfing equipment to hikers.
Please note that it is illegal to camp on these beaches.
