Waterfall bay (Hong Kong) is located outside the Shui Choi Tin Village settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Waterfall bay with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

"It's a great spot for unwinding, situated right by the ocean with lovely vistas of Lamma island. The waterfall provides a picturesque backdrop for capturing some stunning photos. The beach is conveniently located near several public transportation stops and has plenty of benches for seating."

Riaz Khan

"The beach has a waterfall right by the sea, which was unexpected considering it is so close to a residential area. It is very accessible and I had a lovely afternoon there. The sunset view is especially beautiful, sitting and watching the waves with the waterfall in the background is truly pleasant. Just make sure to protect yourself from mosquitoes!"
