Nestled on the eastern shore of Hong Kong Island, this secluded beach offers soft golden sand, rolling waves, and a laid-back surf culture. I spent the afternoon here, watching surfers ride the waves while enjoying the cool ocean breeze and a fresh coconut from a local beachside stall. It’s a great place for both beginners wanting to try surfing and those who simply want to unwind by the sea. Just a short hike from Dragon’s Back, Big Wave Bay is the ideal reward after an adventurous day outdoors!

Nice day in Hong Kong island.
