Exploring nature in
THE SOUTHSIDE
SOUTH BAY BEACH
SOUTH BAY BEACH
Yearning for a beach day out, but without the
crowds? Look no further than South Bay Beach,
located along the southernmost part of Repulse
Bay. It requires more effort to get there compared
to nearby Repulse Bay Beach and Middle Bay Beach,
which are both served directly by public transport
– that might explain why South Bay Beach is less
frequented. Set within a secluded cove, South Bay
Beach offers clear water, calm waves, barbeque
pits and a great sunset view facing the roller
coasters of Ocean Park. The beach is also an ideal
spot for open-water swimming and stand-up
paddleboarding.
STANLEY MAIN BEACH
STANLEY MAIN BEACH
Often buzzing with energy on weekends, Stanley
Main Beach offers a great open view of Tai Tam
Bay, as well as Red Hill – a headland lined with
high-end residences – and the ridge of the iconic
Dragon’s Back mountain. For Hong Kong architect
and designer Frank Leung, the appeal of this
hotspot is in how multifaceted it is – you can
combine a beach day with browsing through little
shops in the intimate village and having a
leisurely meal at one of the waterfront
restaurants.

beachfront, but the whole lifestyle setting.

REPULSE BAY BEACH
REPULSE BAY BEACH
Repulse Bay Beach, a 292-metre-long (958-foot) strip
of golden sand that stretches beneath luxurious
residential houses and towers, is a symbol of the
Southside’s way of life. Leisure seekers can take a
swim in the calm waters, enjoy watersports such as
wakesurfing, or stroll along the Seaview Promenade
that leads all the way to Deep Water Bay. They can
also partake in the international dining options at
The Pulse mall, or savour a glass of wine at one of
the beachside restaurants while watching the world
go by.
