Tolo Harbour

A long stretch of road by the sea, ok for riding bike and running long distances but air too polluted for walking. Ok to do once.

Splendid sea view, comfortable and clean outdoor areas

exhausting

兒時诲港非常遼濶，因發展大埔填海導致目前的情况，曾有人提議可發展成大埔海上公園，其實個人也認為可以考慮！

根本就是很靚的海港，其實可以發展成海上公園，若然計劃成功，吐露港別有一翻天地。

目前最為人留下深刻印象是扒龍船，其實有人提出建議可發展成中國式海上公園，個人是支持。

根本就係很靚的海港，若不是越填越细，它的整體環境更加好！

吐露港是美麗港口，涵蓋着大埔、馬料水、馬鞍山和遠及船湾淡水湖至塔门一帶，整個區域充滿活力和出海釣魚的人士耍樂其中選擇！

Hong Kong is gifted in the sense that it has so many natural harbours- the one we always look at or talk about it the Victoria Harbour. the sights and scenes draw millions here a year and it could not be beaten anywhere else. Now if you were in HK and wanted to look at a more, natural harbor with a view for a quiet stroll or bike ride (you definitely cant do that in town)- Tolo Harbour will be one for you. Tolo harbor is a natural harbor that is enclosed on three sides- with Taipo to one end, Shatin at the other and Ma On Shan on the south shore of it. Over the years it has seen little destruction of its original shape (with the exception of the Science Park/ Providence bay development). A cycle lane runs right from Tai Wai to Taipo and its runs the entire length of the harbor with promenades lining all 3 sides of the shore. Strange enough is that you will note that no swims in it- for a long time it was simply too dirty to and the fact is that there are no beaches here. More recently, however, water quality has improved greatly and you can now see all forms of watersports taking place and people do fish from the piers jutting out here and there. On a good day you will truly appreciate why Hong Kong is such a gifted place- with the bays and hills surrounding it, it makes for a soothing bike ride or walk. Truth be told there isn't much in terms of historical value but it is a backyard for HKers in the weekend with thousands descending on the cycle lane traversing between the two ends. It does get quite busy at the weekends but it adds to the atmosphere. The Science Park adds itself as a stopping point in offering cafes and restaurants that provides you with a place to admire the harbor. I would recommend anyone wanting a workout to come here.
