Hap Mun Bay Beach, Bathing beach on Sharp Island, Sai Kung District, Hong Kong.
Hap Mun Bay Beach sits on Sharp Island and features a strip of fine sand with clear water backed by green hills. The sheltered cove creates a natural boundary that shapes how visitors experience the shoreline.
The beach gained official status as a regulated swimming location managed by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department. This designation brought safety measures and infrastructure to support water activities in the area.
People gather here for barbecue activities at designated grilling areas, making it a popular social spot for both locals and visitors. The tradition of grilling by the water is a key part of how this place is used and enjoyed.
The beach has changing rooms, showers, toilets, and refreshment stands on the grounds. Lifeguard coverage is available from April through October during peak visiting hours.
During low tide, a natural sandbar emerges and temporarily links this beach to neighboring Kiu Tau island, creating a brief walking path. This tidal phenomenon allows visitors to reach another island without needing a boat.
