Subtropical climate: hot, humid summers with occasional typhoons and heavy rain; mild, drier winters and pleasant autumns. Water is warmest in summer but currents and jellyfish risk increase then.

Reachable by boat (kai-to from Sai Kung town or private boat) or by hiking from established trailheads (e.g., routes from Sai Wan Pavilion/Ham Tin). The nearest urban hub is Sai Kung Town (reachable by bus/minibus from MTR stations such as Hang Hau); from Sai Kung you can take scheduled boat services or start a multi-hour hike. Trails can be steep, exposed and uneven—suitable for experienced hikers or well-prepared day-trippers.
