VISIT LANTAU ISLAND: Tai O (Must-go places in Hong Kong)

Inhabited since as early as the Stone Age, Tai O is one of the most famous fishing communities in Hong Kong. For those living in Hong Kong, this is a place that you would be ashamed of having never been to as it highlights the traditional culture of Hong Kong. Tai O is home to Buddhist culture, incredible scenic spots and restaurants that you must visit to try out the fresh seafood cooked nearby. The rich culture is displayed during the large-scale Dragon Boat competition which takes place each year. Come to Tai O via bus from Mui Wo or Tung Chung, via Ferry from Tuen Mun/Tung Chung or even Water Taxi from Central (now 23% off on trip.com). Go on a nice walk to see the sights of Tai O before rewarding yourself with a delicious seafood meal. Fancy going on another walk? Go ahead! Why not go on a longer walk up the Pink Dolphin Trail or to Yi O? Then you can reward yourself with the sweet Tai O Donut from Tai O Bakery! If you visit Hong Kong, sure you can’t miss Lantau Island, but more importantly, you can’t come over to Lantau Island and not go to Tai O. #celebratewithtrip #meethongkong #hongkong #hk #hkinsider #tripcom5週年

Quaint Waterfront Magic at Tai O Fishing Village 🚤🌿🌊 Step into the charm of Hong Kong’s “Venice of the East”—Tai O Fishing Village! This sun-drenched bay offers classic stilt houses, bustling piers, and pretty mountain backdrops that beg for a camera. Here, local heritage meets breezy seascapes, making every stroll feel like an authentic coastal getaway. 🧭 Recommended Itinerary: Start your adventure early to catch golden light over the fishing boats docked at the pier—those glittering waves and hills make for incredible close-ups. Wander the main waterfront walkway to soak up Tai O’s unique blend of tradition and modern life, spotting crabs skittering by and vendors serving up famous shrimp paste. Explore the alleys lined with historical buildings and pop into a local café for a snack. 🌅 Must-Do Experiences: - hop on a boat tour to spot the rare pink dolphins - try the handmade Tai O snacks, especially the succulent cuttlefish skewers - visit the Tai O Heritage Hotel for another insta-worthy angle overlooking the bay 📸 Top Photo Spots: - Close-ups of fishing boats with mountains behind them—early afternoon for dreamy lighting - The stilt house clusters at sunset - Flowering trees and reflections in the water (keep an eye out for blooming floral corners!) ⏰ Tips & Precautions: Go on a sunny weekday for fewer crowds and sharper outdoor shots. The alleys are tight—pack light! Some walking paths get slippery from the morning dew. Hydrate, wear sunblock, and don’t forget mosquito repellent if you linger by the water. #HongKong #TaiO #FishingVillage #HeritageWalk #CoastalViews
