Sunset at Shek O Beach

The Shek O peninsula is on the extreme southeastern side of the Hong Kong Island. The name in Chinese means a "rocky bay" and explains the landscape. It is separated from the urban district of Hong Kong by a hilly terrain, thus able to retain most of its natural features and avoid destruction by real estate development.

I used to live in Repulse Bay, Hong Kong, when I was a kid and my family used to frequent Shek O during the weekends. It was one of my favourite places. Your photos brought back excellent memories, great job.
