About this Campsite

The Sai Wan Campsite is a hidden gem with stunning scenery and clear waters, but be prepared for some challenges along the way. One of the biggest downsides is the lack of facilities, so it's essential to bring your own supplies and be self-sufficient. On the plus side, the campsite offers breathtaking views, convenient access to amenities like restaurants and shops, and even a helicopter landing pad - making it a great spot for those looking for an adventure in beautiful natural surroundings.

Introduction

The site is at Tai Long Sai Wan, which is one of the best scenic spots in Sai Kung East Country Park. It is located on the northern beach of Sai Wan just adjacent to the second stage of MacLehose Trail. At the camp site, visitors can enjoy the panoramic view along the beach and the break-taking view of the off-shore islands. At dawn, a peek out of the tent flaps will garner a beautiful sunrise from the ocean-lined horizon. Attention: Campers have to aware of high tide on the beach. The southern beach (next to the restaurants) is not opened for camping).
