• Star Ferry – for over a century this ferry has been used to transport both locals and tourists between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon. Although there are now alternate methods of travelling between the two points, millions of passengers still opt for the scenic route. Due to the stunning view of Hong Kong Harbour from the ferry, along with its high efficiency and reliability, there is no wonder that this mode of transport has stood the test of time and thrives to this day.

• Getting Out of the City - Despite being known as a vast, concentrated City, Hong Kong presents visitors with easy access to outdoor activities including beaches and hiking in Country Parks as a break from the hustle and bustle of the vibrant City.

The outlying Islands including Lamma and Lantau are easily accessible by ferry (and in the case of Lantau an amazing cable car trip from Tung Chung). The Islands offer an amazing opportunity to escape the City and experience an alternative side of Hong Kong including lovely countryside, beaches and a very different way of life.

Even Hong Kong Island itself has beautiful Country Parks and hiking opportunities as well as some nice beaches on the South of the Island. Middle Bay (close to Repulse Bay served by various bus routes) is very popular with the LGBT community and has a beach bar/restaurant. South Bay which is the next Beach after Middle Bay is a gorgeous beach which also attracts a number of LGBT visitors. Hong Kong also has a community group which organises numerous activities focused on outdoors including organised hikes and beach parties (https://www.facebook.com/groups/outinhk/)
