Tolo Channel
The Tolo Channel (or Chek Mun Hoi Hap) divides the New Territories two most rural areas. Plover Cove & Sai Kung. The Chinese name Chek Mun means Red Gate. Hoi Hap is the modern term for a sea channel. It is named red gate for the distinctive red-coloured sedimentary rocks (rich in iron) to its north. A twice daily 2hr ferry ride from Ma Liu Shui takes you through the channel stopping at isolated bays along Sai Kung`s northern coast. The boat stops at Wong Chek, where you can catch a bus ride to Sai Kung Town.
To start the ferry ride, get off at University MTR and walk to the public ferry pier. The bargain ride costs just HK$16 and goes from the pier at 8-30am and 3pm.
