One of the best ways to discover this wild part of Hong Kong is to take a kayak tour and paddle around or even through this amazing group of islands.
Most of the kayak tours start from Sai Kung fishing village harbor.

After a short briefing, the sightseeing journey begins and can be combined with swimming and snorkeling, as well as hiking on some of the islands.
The excursion starts early in the morning and lasts about six to eight hours, depending on the itinerary you will choose. All kayak tours are suitable for all skill levels and the best season for this activity is during summer months. Note that the climate is influenced by the monsoons and summers are hot and humid, with frequent thunderstorms and typhoons and the temperature exceeds 30 °C/86 °F during the day.
