Silverstrand Beach

Silverstrand Beach is a sandy beach along Clear Water Bay Peninsula with designated swimming zones and white sand. Forested hills frame the bay, creating a natural enclosure that separates it from the surrounding area.

The beach came under the management of the Leisure and Cultural Services Department in the late 1900s. This shift allowed for improved maintenance and regular safety oversight of the public space.

Families gather at the barbecue pits on weekends, continuing a Hong Kong tradition of shared outdoor cooking experiences. These weekend gatherings show how the beach serves as a social meeting place for local communities.

Lifeguards monitor the beach from April through October during peak season. Extended hours operate during summer months and on weekends and holidays when more visitors arrive.

Two shark incidents occurred in the early 1990s, leading to enhanced monitoring and regular marine activity checks. These events shaped the ongoing safety protocols that remain in place today.
