Repulse Bay, Coastal bay and residential area in Southern District, Hong Kong.

The crescent-shaped beach stretches along clear waters, bordered by modern residential buildings and green hills in the background.

The bay received its name in the 1840s after the British Royal Navy used the area to counter pirate activities in local waters.

Two large Taoist deities, Tin Hau and Kwun Yam, stand in the gardens near the beach, marking the spiritual connection of locals with the sea.

The beach includes changing rooms, showers, lifeguard services from March to November, and direct bus connections from Central Hong Kong.

The waters of Repulse Bay remain an active zone for local fishing boats, maintaining traditional maritime practices in modern Hong Kong.
