Tai O Boat Trip 🚤🇭🇰 Watch the Chinese Pink Dolphin! 🐬💓

#islandtour If you are visiting Tai O village on Lantau Island, you should not miss the opportunity to take a boat trip! You can even see the pink dolphin if you are lucky enough💖 I took the 20-minute route that costed 40HKD and brought me a close-up views of Tai O general rocks, heritage hotel, the stilt houses on both sides, Tai Chung Bridge and Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge around the island. We were so lucky to see some pink dolphins jumping across the ocean at the end of our trip!!🐬🤩 The Chinese White Dolphin (adult looks pink) is an endangered species whose number have dwindled in recent decades. At its peak in 2003, there were 158 of them. Nowadays, less than 30 are left. In most of time, they do not show up, especially on burning days. To see them, All you need is luck. #hongkongtravelguide #hongkong #100waysoftravel

Quaint Waterfront Magic at Tai O Fishing Village 🚤🌿🌊 Step into the charm of Hong Kong’s “Venice of the East”—Tai O Fishing Village! This sun-drenched bay offers classic stilt houses, bustling piers, and pretty mountain backdrops that beg for a camera. Here, local heritage meets breezy seascapes, making every stroll feel like an authentic coastal getaway. 🧭 Recommended Itinerary: Start your adventure early to catch golden light over the fishing boats docked at the pier—those glittering waves and hills make for incredible close-ups. Wander the main waterfront walkway to soak up Tai O’s unique blend of tradition and modern life, spotting crabs skittering by and vendors serving up famous shrimp paste. Explore the alleys lined with historical buildings and pop into a local café for a snack. 🌅 Must-Do Experiences: - hop on a boat tour to spot the rare pink dolphins - try the handmade Tai O snacks, especially the succulent cuttlefish skewers - visit the Tai O Heritage Hotel for another insta-worthy angle overlooking the bay 📸 Top Photo Spots: - Close-ups of fishing boats with mountains behind them—early afternoon for dreamy lighting - The stilt house clusters at sunset - Flowering trees and reflections in the water (keep an eye out for blooming floral corners!) ⏰ Tips & Precautions: Go on a sunny weekday for fewer crowds and sharper outdoor shots. The alleys are tight—pack light! Some walking paths get slippery from the morning dew. Hydrate, wear sunblock, and don’t forget mosquito repellent if you linger by the water. #HongKong #TaiO #FishingVillage #HeritageWalk #CoastalViews
