Seafaris are exciting opportunities to explore the rugged and dramatic coastline of Sai Kung (New Territories) from the comfort of a safe and reliable speedboat.
It is a fantastic day out; far from the crowds of Central and TST and a chance to visit white sandy beaches, admire incredible geological coastal formations and see a variety of wildlife. There is also ample time to snorkel above coral communities, swim or simply kick back and lie on the beach.
Also on offer are overnight camping trips to remote and secluded bays in Ping Chau, Double Haven or Port Shelter. A range of activities including snorkeling, diving & kayaking are available. Dinner is BBQ fish (freshly caught) and if the skies permit a lesson in star gazing is the night time entertainment.

Seafari Highlights
Want to know what we did and saw!
Date: 04 October 2004
Itinerary: Sai Kung - Wang Chau
Highlights: Looks like the White bellied sea eagles have built a new nest. Pair spotted roosting and able to approach quite close. Headed out to the seacaves, but monster swells kept us some distance off. Quite a few baitfish and larger schools of predatory fish were seen within Port Shelter.
Date: 08 August 2004
Itinerary: Sai Kung - Fu Tan Fau Island - Millionaires Beach
Highlights: Found a quite spot to fish (handlines) to the south of Fu Tan Fau. Did we catch anything? Blame the murky water conditions. Steamed amberjack for lunch and then swim/snorkel at Millionaires Beach.
Date: 07 August 2004
Itnerary: Sai Kung - Wang Chau - Pak Lap - Hebe Haven
Highlights: Out to Wang Chau to see coastline, few reef herons resting on cliff face. Walked to Pak Lap from Sha Kiu and then headed for a swim/snorkel at Snake Bay.
Date: 04 August 2004
Itinerary: Sai Kung - Tai Long Wan
Highlights: Early morning (8am) start to head to Tai Long Wan, before any other boats arrive and make the most of cooler temperatures. For lunch we had steamed fish (amberjack and barracuda), afterwards thought about hiking to the top of Sharp Peak, but the white sandy beach and clear water was too relaxing.

Date: 30 July 2004
