rcee_xandrahrain — Sai Kung Public Pier

Scaling the edge of Hong Kong’s wildest terrain 🪨🌊 This is the epic Guandao Cave at Basalt Island—part of the Ung Kong Group in the Sai Kung UNESCO Global Geopark, Hong Kong. These insane rock columns were formed by a massive volcanic eruption roughly 140 million years ago, and today they form the tallest sea arch in HK! How to get there: Since Basalt Island is a protected, uninhabited island with no public ferries, you have two main options: 1. Charter a Speedboat: Rent a private or group speedboat from Sai Kung Public Pier. It’s a scenic 20–30 minute ride straight to the sea arches! 2. Join a Guided Tour: Look for local Geopark boat, eco-snorkeling, or kayaking tours operating out of Sai Kung for a hassle-free day trip. ⚠️ Note: Check sea and wave conditions before heading out, as this area faces the open sea and requires calm weather to land or swim safely! #BasaltIsland #SaiKung #HongKongGeopark #GuandaoCave #DiscoverHongKong
