I first came to this island nearly 45 years ago in a motorized sampman from aberdeen. I think the fare was 15 hk dollars. Today you'll take the ferry from Hong Kong Island, about 25 dollars one way--…Full review by Kenpasha

Lamma Island is Hong Kong’s answer to Europe’s peaceful andquaint Scandinavia, with just the right amount of Asian to make its point. Rolling hills, sleepy fishing villages, glorious seafood by the w…Full review by somewherelands

Getting to Lamma Island was easy. Just catch the right ferry from Central Pier. We chose to start at Yung Shue Wan where there would be cafes. We had been doing a lot of walking the previous 3 days, …Full review by pristml
Will there be a lot of people visiting Hung Sing Yeh beach on a long Saturday weekend? And how many BBQ grills are there near Hung Shing Ye BBQ Site??
A:
Hi, I cannot tell you for certain - this is a very popular place - I think your only hope for a grill is to get there super early. Hope you have a great day.
Can I please get some Lamma Island (near Hong Kong) restaurant recommendations for a lunch early April, on a Friday - early-ish to get the ferry back to HK Island for a 3 pm function before the 7s Rugby starts? Don't want to hike miles (group of 8 friends, in early 60s)?

If you take the slow ferry across (only about 20 minutes longer), you will arrive at the town of Sok Kwu Won (I think) with more restaurants. Many are under the same management. Just …
If you take the slow ferry across (only about 20 minutes longer), you will arrive at the town of Sok Kwu Won (I think) with more restaurants. Many are under the same management. Just look in the aquaria until you see the selection of food that you like, check the prices, grab a waterside table and enjoy. Also, Yung Shue has seafood restaurants, there are just more in Sok Kwu Wan.
has anyone visited the kamikaze caves on Lamma? How far and difficult is the walk from the bus? general impression?
A:
Yes in 2012, I went inside, but need a torch to see anything. I went to have an other look at the cave last September 2017, but it had been blocked off with big boulders. John M.
Couple of questions: 1. What's the best way to get to Lamma Island from Kowloon? 2. What hotel do you recommend for Lamma for one night? Thanks Allan
A:
The only way to Lamma Island is by ferry at Central Pier. To be exact - "Take ferry from Central Pier 4 to Sok Kwu Wan", should take around 30-40 minutes. From Kowloon to Central Pier …
The only way to Lamma Island is by ferry at Central Pier. To be exact - "Take ferry from Central Pier 4 to Sok Kwu Wan", should take around 30-40 minutes. From Kowloon to Central Pier you have two options (1) By MTR - Hop on MTR then head to "Central Station" then walk inside station to "Hong Kong Station" and inside HK station follow signage or ask a staff to guide you to Central Pier. It's about 5-8 mins walk. (2) By Star ferry - jump on Star ferry at Tsimshatsui side to Central (20 mins ride), off ferry then you are already at the Central Pier (where the big ferris wheel located), then 3 mins walk to Central Pier 4. Regarding hotel, I believe there is no hotel accommodation on the island as HK is too small which talking about 30 mins - 1 hour travelling distance. If you are a camper you may consider having a wild night there. Enjoy your stay in HK
