Yan Chau Tong Marine Park, Marine park in North District, Hong Kong.
The park spans 680 hectares of coastal area, featuring mangrove forests, seagrass beds, and diverse marine habitats supporting numerous fish species.
The geological formations in Yan Chau Tong date back 160 million years when volcanic activity created the foundation of mountains and coastal features.
Local fishermen maintain traditional practices in designated zones of the marine park, contributing to the preservation of Hong Kong's maritime heritage.
Visitors can reach the marine park by boat from various public piers, with guided tours available through the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department.
The marine park contains all eight species of true mangroves found in Hong Kong, with extensive beds at Lai Chi Wo covering 2.7 hectares.
