During the hot summer months, kayaking is an ideal way to explore our backyard. There are two different locations in the wilds of Sai Kung Country Park that will take your breath away. The village of&nbsp;Hoi Ha&nbsp;provides an ideal spot for beginners and families that almost anyone could have a crack at, while Pak Lap Wan is a much more intrepid paddling experience at the best of times. Read on to find out how you can get to these two stunning kayaking destinations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/your-ultimate-guide-to-summer-camps-hong-kong\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Your ultimate guide to summer camps (opens in a new tab)\">Your ultimate guide to summer camps<\/a> <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Option 1: Hoi Ha<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d29497.27729743027!2d114.31247338029223!3d22.46063365537766!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x34040e21bf5edc57%3A0xab23f4c489a8d92c!2sHoi+Ha!5e0!3m2!1sen!2shk!4v1559630228956!5m2!1sen!2shk\" width=\"696\" height=\"464\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/figure><\/br>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Difficulty level:<\/strong>&nbsp;Easy<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Nestled on the southern end of a stunning coastal inlet,&nbsp;Hoi Ha&nbsp;is a sanctuary for many types of marine life and is among the most pristine places to be found in Hong Kong. Never mind the kayaking, for many the beautiful journey just to get there is worth the effort. However, once you dip your paddle into the clear calm waters, Hoi Ha takes on an entirely new aura.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting to Hoi Ha is pretty simple despite its far-flung location. Simply make your way to Sai Kung ferry pier, then embark on either a 20-minute minibus or taxi ride to Hoi Ha village. The minibus runs every half hour. Try to make this trip on weekdays, as there is a lot of pressure on transportation during weekends and public holidays. Don\u2019t leave it too late in the day to head home either. From the bus stop, walk through the village directly down to the waterfront where there are a couple of different kayak vendors where you can rent kayaks, life vests and paddles. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"690\" src=\"http:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-1030x690.jpg\" alt=\"Wild Hong Kong, Sai Kung, Hong Kong \" class=\"wp-image-4440\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-1030x690.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-1024x686.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-202x134.jpg 202w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-1000x670.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-643x431.jpg 643w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-1026x687.jpg 1026w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-686x459.jpg 686w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-200x134.jpg 200w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-400x268.jpg 400w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-600x402.jpg 600w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o-800x536.jpg 800w, https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/61850269_2505181826158758_4887458987965939712_o.jpg 1199w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" \/><figcaption>Stunning coastline of Hoi Ha.

With abundant sea life, scattered coral beds and beaches, there is more than enough to fill a day. If you\u2019re eager to venture out further, navigate around the headland towards Wong Shek or Tap Mun Island and capture fantastic vistas of Sharp Peak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Option 2:<\/strong> <strong>Pak Lap Wan<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d1845.0440033186228!2d114.3607818582443!3d22.350305596324468!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x34041ae124bd1385%3A0xb6e6fc0ddafd7f6a!2sPak+Lap+Wan!5e0!3m2!1sen!2shk!4v1559630259316!5m2!1sen!2shk\" width=\"696\" height=\"464\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/figure><\/br>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Difficulty level:<\/strong>&nbsp;Hard<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Tucked away in the secluded eastern reaches of Sai Kung Country Park, Pak Lap Wan serves as an ideal launch pad into the Hong Kong Geopark. The best way to reach Pak Lap Wan is by taxi from Sai Kung Town and walk down the hill from the road to the beach, the walk should take no more than 10 minutes. Once at the beach, there is a small building that rents out kayaks, camping equipment and prepares basic meals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Out on the water one can either follow the coastline northwards past rugged cliffs and around to the white sands of Long Ke for a picnic lunch, or paddle southeast to explore the dramatic sea arches of Wang Chau and Basalt Island.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between April and September, the easterly trade winds tend to deviate elsewhere and this is the prime time to paddle the Geopark. You may get lucky during the other half of the year, but be prepared to paddle through swell and stay clear of the rocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/hongkongliving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Kayaking-in-Sai-Kung-e1611715769428-1030x715.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-36822\"\/><figcaption>Why not join a tour: Photo: Rory&nbsp;Mackay.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If the conditions do turn out to be choppy on the day, then hug the coastline and head for the sheltered waters of Sai Kung harbour to the west. Although the rock formations there are not as pronounced, they are still impressive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However when winds and swell come from the east, make sure you are fully prepared. Pay close attention to forecasts and sea conditions prior to departure on the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Heading out on the open waters around the Geopark is not recommended for beginners and joining a tour group is a good idea.&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wildhongkong.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Wild Hong Kong<\/a>, operates tours to both the locations mentioned above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hoi Ha and Pak Lap Wan are two scenic kayaking destinations tucked away at Hong Kong&#8217;s back garden<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[777],"tags":[183],"class_list":["post-4439","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-days-out","tag-sai-kung-things-to-do"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Your guide to kayaking around Sai Kung Country Park - Hong Kong Living<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"During the hot summer months, kayaking is an ideal way to explore our backyard.
