The Kiu Tsui Country Park is the smallest of the designated countries in Hong Kong covering an area of only 100 hectares in the Port Shelter of Sai Kung. Within this area are eight outlying islands, most notably the popular day trip destination of Sharp Island and the adjacent island called Kiu Tau which is connected by way of a tombolo (land bridge) when tide levels are below 1.4 meters.
Most visitors use sampan or kaito ferry transportation from the Sai Kung New Ferry Pier to Sharp Island, which has two ferry piers (HK$30 return to Sharp Island) in the north and (HK$40 return to Hap Mun Beach) in the south of the island. The island is very popular for swimming, snorkelling and exploring, including the short designated UNESCO Geo Trail area near the main ferry pier where you can find geological features dating back nearly 140 years when the entire area around Sai Kung was a super volcano.

This is a very nice place whether one's interested in hiking, swimming, photography, BBQ, or simply relaxing. The island has two piers with regular ferry service plying from morning to evening. Ferries can be boarded at Sai Kung. The fare for Kiu Tsui Beach was less compared to that of Hap Mun Bay. One needs to buy a ticket at Sai Kung, which one needs to submit when catching the...
