神風洞, Military cave complex on Lamma Island, Hong Kong.
Kamikaze Cave is a military cave complex on Lamma Island containing multiple chambers originally used for storing attack boats during wartime. The site features reinforced concrete structures and vessel storage areas that remain visible today.
Japanese military forces developed this site during the Second World War to house fast attack boats intended for assaults on Allied shipping. The location served as a strategic component of regional military operations.
The site reflects wartime strategies that shaped how people understood defense and survival in Hong Kong during the 1940s. Local guides often share stories about how residents adapted to military occupation during this period.
Access is via marked hiking trails from Sok Kwu Wan village, with clear signage guiding visitors along the route. Sturdy footwear and water are recommended since the path involves some uphill walking.
The cave's interior maintains original structural elements from its wartime period, including concrete reinforcements and vessel storage areas.
