Cape D’Aguilar, a Marina Conservation Park Last year, we went to the South east side of Hong Kong Island and spent hours hiking the Cape D’Aguilar or Hok Tsui route. The trail is easy and smooth, it’s paved all the way with moderate inclines. From bus stop, it’s walk straight down the cape d’Aguilar road. It’s between the hill on one side and sea view on the other which is the coastal view of Stanley. After about an hour walk, you should arrive at the Radio Transmitting Station with speed breaker or warning signs about trespassing. Well, just go off road. There’s a path that runs along the main road and goes around the station, then you’ll be back on the paved road on the other side. Not long after you passed the station, you’ll see the sign board with fork in the road, where the left path takes you to the lighthouse and right is to the marine reserve, which is where we are heading towards! It’s pretty straightforward from here. You’ll know when you arrive , the view is really quite breathtaking. Find your way down to the rocky shores, walk along the shores and you’ll see the whale bones. Keep going, behind the bones, make way to crab cave where beautiful shots are taken, admire the geological formations and witness the tumultuous waves. Average time: 5 hours round trip (including photos and toilet stops) Distance: approximately 8km Toilet: There are cubicles and public toilets at the village. Replenish stations: There’s local cafe at the village near public toilets (you won’t miss it, there’s a signboard for it and apparently their instant noodles with luncheon are hot item) and there’s another local stores near the destination. Difficulties: ⭐️ Scenic: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ How to get there: - Shau Kei Wan MTR station A3 exit and look for bus no. 9 to Shek O and get off at Cape D’Aguilar (鶴咀) which is approximately 20-25 mins Note: Due to the popularity of Cape D’Aguilar, there are some bus no. 9 that skipped the stop. So make sure you ask of it stops.
