5 Best Day Trips from Hong Kong

"Debuted in 1995, the Jockey Club Kau Sai Chau Public Golf Course is the only golf course in Hong Kong open to the public. Located on remote Kau Sai Chau, an island that’s only accessible via solar-powered catamaran service from Sai Kung Pier, the golfing mecca is home to three distinct 18-hole courses—North, South, and East. The East course is the most dramatic, overlooking the South China Sea from a rugged cliffside; the North, designed by Gary Player, is the most challenging (and walking-only). But all pf them sport manicured greens and wildlife spottings, from eagles to herons and deer, which make it a worthwhile outdoor activity (missed putts aside)." - Kate Springer
