Easter begins April 2 this year – known as Good Friday. For the next 5 days people living in Hong Kong have the opportunity to explore some of the most amazing parts of Hong Kong (these places tend to take more time to get to than just 1 day).
To take advantage of the long break, Sea Kayak Hong Kong is scheduling trips over this period to some of the more remote and beautiful islands by sea kayak.
These trips are 1, or more days in duration, all exploring the coastlines and islands of the outer reaches of the UNESCO Global Geopark.
The classic 1-day sea kayak journey suitable for beginners. We cross Port Shelter from Sai Kung, passing Sharp Island heading to the famous Jin Island “Bell Arch”.
From here we cross Rocky Harbour to our destination at Pak A.

Bluff island features beautiful white sand beaches, coral reefs to snorkel, stunning sea cliffs (the columns) and a sea tunnel that passes right through the island.

The final day of an adventurous 5 days of sea kayaking around the beautiful UNESCO Global Geopark.
If you want to do more than one trip over this holiday period you can camp overnight with us at Billionaires Beach, a beautiful and isolated beach just to the east of Pak A.
We will setting up our base camp there as it is only 10 minutes paddle from our kayaks at Pak A.
If you want to join us camping you have some options below.
Please note: as you will need a kayak to get backwards and forwards between the camp and Pak A, there is no camp only option. You will need to be booked onto or have just completed a tour to be able to use the kayaks for transport.
This is a remote camp so you will also need to bring your food and water (or get your daily meals at the Tung A restaurant.
There is free camping available at Pak A and Pak Lap. If you bring your own food and equipment, you can stay as long as you like and join the trip the next morning or stay the night to enjoy the company of your new sea kayaking friends. The restaurant at Tung A is open for dinner and breakfast too.
We have 2 man and 3 man tents and sleeping mats available for hire. These are rented on a per piece basis so the price is determined by your needs.They will be set up at Billionaires Beach so you will not have to do much, just buy a tour so have you have access to a kayak to get to and from the camp.
Except for the first day, the kayaks will be based at Pak A to make these outer island trips accessible. That means you will have to travel to Pak A to start the trip or depart pak A to get back home (unless you decide to camp). Public transport is by taxi from Sai Kung allowing 20 minutes travelling time in the vehicle and a 20 minute hike to the beach at Pak A..
We have arranged a speedboat to be available for people wishing to travel between Sai Kung and Pak A. The trip takes approx 20 minutes, door to door. Easily the most convenient way to get there and back. the price is dependent on numbers on the boat - starting at $800 for 10 people.
