From the many TVB dramas, Lamma Island has always been famous for their many seafood restaurants. Other than that, there are actually also many things to see and do on lamma island.
there are 2 ferries leaving for lamma island coz the island has 2 jetties. when we were there, we just took the first ferry leaving the central ferry station.
have a map in hand coz the fun part abt this island is the trekking! the 2 jetties are almost at the 2 ends of the island so most ppl will choose to just walk from one end to another. the starting parts of the walk u'll just pass through many houses, small shops etc.. on the way u'll also pass by a temple. (i think its a tin hau temple if i remember correctly). If u start from the yung shue wan jetty and follow the signs correctly, you will pass by this small makeshift stall selling beancurd. The beancurd is seriously good. Go for the cold one. Its so smooth and refreshing. And the thick sugar syrup has a distinctive ginger taste. The tiny stall has benches for you to sit and enjoy the dessert. apparently its quite a famous stall as we saw many newspaper articles featuring it. After the dessert, walk further on and u'll reach the beach. if you are visiting in summer, take a dip in the crystal clear waters at the beach! there's a small hotel there i think but its only open in the summer. after the beach, take a hike up the hill. whoa! the views are amazing. theres an irritating power station interferring with ur view but other than that, its totally blue skies, fresh air, green grass... a wonderful break from all the shopping and eating in hong kong city area itself.

Lamma Island is one of Hong Kong's outlying islands, famous for its hiking trails, natural scenery, seafood restaurants and local delicacies. Frequent ferries commute between Central (the CBD of Hong Kong) and Lamma Island. For more, please refer to travelogues.

Try taking the ferry from Central Pier to Lamma Island, either Sok Kwu Wan or Yung Shu Wan. It is worth the trip to sample the absolute contrast from the frenetic pace of life in Hong Kong. You can walk from either end of the island in a couple of hours and get a ferry back. Lamma has such a quaint, laid back atmosphere, with fantastic seafood restaurants by the harbour, and okay beaches too.

This is the first place we had visited in Hong Kong. The island is very peaceful and famous with its seafood. This is also the place of birth for actor - Chow Yun Fatt.

Just get away from the city and enjoy a quiet day that is a world away from the bustle of the city. Great resturants, nice walk, in peaceful surroundings.
