Mainland Chinese tourists are exploring the diverse archipelago surrounding Hong Kong, venturing to islands further afield and even the isolated Tung Ping Chau. The recent passage of Super Typhoon Ragasa left significant debris on the island, impacting travel plans. Visitors have reported difficulties securing ferry access back to Sha Tin’s Ma Liu Shui Pier during the public holiday following the Mid-Autumn Festival. While the islands’ clear waters are described as picturesque, travel disruptions have been reported, necessitating alternative transportation arrangements. The situation highlights the potential impacts of extreme weather events on island tourism.
