"Take a breath of fresh air on Tap Mun, an island embraced

by sparkling ocean and blessed with timeless, grassy meadows."

This quaint island has quite the unique story. Once upon a time, the intriguing enclave was a pirate’s sanctuary. Now, Tap Mun is home to a laid-back fishing community of Hakka and Tanka people.

Follow the signposts from the pier and venture along the easygoing, 2km circuit walk. Visit the island's 400 year-old Tin Hau temple and relax in one of the island's green meadows. The trail also passes Tap Mun's famous "Balanced Rock", a natural wonder of large rocks balancing on each other. Spend the afternoon flying a kite, picnicing, fishing or camping amongst the sensational panoramas.
