Hi David,

Better check with Phil for this.  He is more familiar with that area.  The more I look at it the island looks like Ngau Mei Chau, just off Silverstrand Bay.  But I am uncertain even the view from Google Earth seemed to match.

Best Regards,

T

Well, I'm no expert either but I reckon T is right. Ngau Mei Chau (aka Shelter Island).

Hi there,

If it is Ngau Mei Chau, then my speculation of the site of the former Sai Kung Camp/Barrack is not too far off the exact location.

Best Regards,

T

Hi T,

Yes, it is Ngau Mei Chau, look at the extreme right edge of the photo, you will see a headland that looks like a pc mouse - that is Ngan Tau Sha at Siu Chung Lam.
