Great new annotated photo tour of walking around Northern Lamma Island, including the Cable Routes and my personal favourite, the Snake Path:

"I know you often collect press on Lamma island. Here is one I came across. For once it avoids all the hippie stereotypes and the dogshit.

"Someone said the author is a Lamma resident. I don't know if that's true."

From Magic City Morning Star:

The third day, I hiked on Lamma Island, a forty-minute ferry ride from Hong Kong Island; it is still sparsely populated because of its distance from the business and commercial areas of the city. Small shops and restaurants are situated on the beach.

For the protection of the sharks, a net separates a part of the beach from the ocean. To have the sharks be contaminated by feed other than fish is to be avoided for the fin is expensive.

However, the main attraction of the island is a giant energy windmill that sits on the highest hill. Chinese people go there in droves and take pictures all along its base. The windmill should be the emblem of communism - inefficient, costly, unproductive, but it looks good.


Now we know the REAL reason for that shark net off Hung Shing Ye beach...
