Top Four Most Popular Destinations for Junk Trips in Hong Kong

Although Hong Kong’s climate makes boating a great activity all year round, April through October are generally the most popular months for getting out on the water. During the summer season tourists and locals alike head to the many outlying islands and their beautiful beaches, looking to escape the heat of the city and enjoy the quieter side to HK. It is a perfect day out - as soon as you sail out of Victoria Harbour, the breeze picks up and the temperature drops - bliss!

Even If you don’t own your own boat there’s no need to miss out. Hong Kong is home to many pleasure boats that are available for rent. These are known as junk boats and come complete with captain and crew, and across a wide range of price points. Since boat rental in HK is now easier than ever before there is now nothing to stop you from exploring some of the most popular junk destinations in Hong Kong:

Turtle Bay:

Located in Lamma Island, Turtle Bay is one of the favorite destinations for a junk boat party in HK. The beautiful beach there is a breeding site for Hong Kong’s rare green turtles and in order to protect them is closed between June & October - but it is still permitted to anchor in the bay and swim around the junk. To get to Turtle Bay a boat charter in HK is the best bet.

The Ninepin Island Group:

This group of 29 islets in the eastern waters of HK, renowned for its incredible hexagonal column rock formations is a beautiful place to visit on a junk trip. The stunning rock formations are the result of the eruption of a super volcano some 140 million years ago and forms part of Hong Kong’s UNESCO Geopark.

Po Toi Island:

A few kilometers southeast of Hong Kong Island, Po Toi is a well-known destination for junk trips and nature seekers who like to drop anchor and have a swim in the protected main bay. The island is known for its rugged granite cape where cliffs drop away to the South China Sea as well as the fantastic seafood restaurant on the harbour beach.

Tai Long Wan:

Tai Long Wan (Big Wave Bay) is considered by many to be Hong Kong’s most beautiful area and is one of the best places for a fabulous escape from the crowd. There are four beaches in the bay - all are only accessible by hiking trail or by boat - Ham Tin Wan, Tai Wan (Big Bay), Tung Wan (East Bay) and Sai Wan (West Bay).
