It stretches from Grand Promenade (Private Residences ) to the junction of Shau Kei Wan Main Street East and Oi Lai Road.

This street was the shopping and residential quarters for fishermen and their trade wares. The shelter was like a half circle in a pocket shape. This shelter (the pocket shape) is now reclaimed from the ocean with landfills and straightened out on the side facing the sea , into the current Promenade. From the Promenade ,a stretch of sea with shelter Quay makes a new Ships’ shelter. The moorings are more of yachts instead of fishing boats, unlike the old days.

This promenade is a nice place to visit occasionally to relax , to enjoy the environment and for taking photograph. The visit was made on Oct 17,2020 and illustrative pictures are attached .
