Clear Water Bay (清水湾) & Po Toi O (布袋澳), Fishing village in Hong Kong

It was a nice beautiful day for a drive... A good friend of mine in Hong Kong took me for a drive to Clear Water Bay Peninsula in the afternoon.

The village probably hasn't been changed for a long time...

Clear Water Bay is located in Sai Kung District in the New Territories. About 10-15km East from Kowloon Bay. Po Toi O Fishing Village is a popular weekend drive destination for Hong Kong people, specially in the summer time. Towards the dinner time, more and more cars around the village and there wasn't enough parking space.

Dried seafood are sold at their shops for the tourists

From the village's entrance, follow a narrow path leads to the village for a minute, then you see a few shops on the both side of the alley. Selling fresh seaweed, dried fish and renting a boat for fishers.
Actually, I have seen the similar scene in Japan... it was also a small fishing village somewhere in Ito Peninsula. I think the way of the fishing villager's life is a common practice anywhere in the world. Their life style probably has been the same for hundreds of years and it shall stay the same for another hundreds of years...

 Beautiful view of Clear Water Bay!!

Beautiful ocean view in the beautiful afternoon!! I must say, I was very lucky to be there on such a beautiful day and, thanks to my friend, I could enjoy the scenery from the Clearwater Bay Golf & Coutry Club -the club opened in 1982 and it has been one of the best club in the region ever since-.
