Sham Wan is a beautiful bay in the south of the island that can be reached from Tung O Wan by clambering over the hills. A trail on the left about 200m up the hill from Tung O Wan leads south to this small and sandy beach. Don’t come here from June to October, when Hong Kong’s endangered green turtles nest and the beach is closed to the public.
