Pui O Beach

Pui O Beach is a bathing beach on the southern coast of Lantau Island with a sandy shoreline facing Pui O Bay and the Chi Ma Wan Peninsula. The beach provides barbecue pits, changing facilities, showers, toilets, a food stand, and designated camping areas for overnight stays.

The beach developed from agricultural lands, where water buffaloes still roam freely today, preserving links to farming traditions. This connection to the past remains visible in the surrounding landscape and daily rhythms of the area.

The beach marks where freshwater streams meet the ocean, creating a natural meeting point that holds meaning for local communities. This intersection shapes how people relate to the landscape around them.

The beach is reasonably easy to reach but remains less developed than other Hong Kong beaches, with limited commercial services nearby. Visitors should plan ahead and bring essentials, since facilities and food options are more basic than at busier coastal spots.

The sand here displays an unusual blend of black and yellow grains, reflecting the specific geological formation beneath the island. This color pattern makes the shoreline visually distinct and often surprises visitors who are used to more uniform sand elsewhere.
