Deep Water Bay

Category: Beaches
Location: Southside

Fodor's Review:

On Island Road, just to the east of Ocean Park and all its amusements, this bay was the setting for the William Holden film Love Is a Many Splendored Thing (1955), and its deep coves are still lovely. Near Deep Water Bay are the manicured greens of the Deep Water Bay Golf Course, which is owned by the Hong Kong Golf Club. Not surprisingly, the area has become a multimillionaires' enclave and is home to Hong Kong's richest man, Li Ka-shing, a very private real-estate tycoon.

To rent a speedboat, waterskiing equipment, and the services of a driver, contact the Waterski Club (Pier at Deep Water Bay Beach, Deep Water Bay. 2812-0391) or ask your hotel for the names and numbers of other outfitters. The cost is usually about HK$700 per hour.

From Exchange Square Bus Terminus in Central, take Bus 6, 64, 260, or 6A.
