Grass Island, Island destination in Tai Po District, Hong Kong.

The 1.69 square kilometer island features grassy slopes, coastal paths, and open hilltops overlooking the Tolo Channel waters.

The island experienced its population peak of 2,000 residents during the fishing industry growth, leading to the establishment of multiple temples and schools.

The Tin Hau Temple from 1737 and Shui Yuet Kung from 1788 remain central locations for religious ceremonies and festivals throughout the year.

Ferries operate between Wong Shek Pier and Ma Liu Shui Pier to the island, with increased services during weekends and final departures at 5:30 PM.

The hilltop camping area permits overnight stays where visitors experience temperature changes while viewing both sunrise and sunset over the water.
