Lamma Island
Only a 30 min ferry ride away from Central!
Laid back and has a variety of beaches and hiking trails to explore. Lamma island doesn't allow any cars or taxis and prides itself on being solely pedestrian, so be prepared to walk around this island!
Lamma Island has a free-spirited, multicultural vibe and is home to hipsters and creative types. Indie boutiques, craft stores and mellow cafes line Yung Shue Wan Main Street. The island’s hiking trails take in the WWII-era Kamikaze Caves and have sweeping coastal views. Locals and day-trippers unwind on Hung Shing Yeh Beach, or head to Sok Kwu Wan fishing village and its casual seafood eateries
