Lamma Trail

Laid-back Lamma Island is home to the alternative-culture community, hence the hippie stalls on Main Street. Chill on the beach, then follow the signposts to Sok Kwu Wan, the seafood village in the north. It's a relatively easy, hour-long hike along a concrete track over the spine of the island. At its highest point is a pagoda where you can catch your breath. Need another dip? Turn right at the bottom of the hill for Shek Pai Wan beach. Otherwise, carry on to Sok Kwu Wan, where you can catch a ferry to Central or Aberdeen. Alternatively, keep going to Mo Tat Wan - a stop on the Aberdeen ferry route.
