This photo was taken by my father either in the late 50's or early 60's - we had a yacht there in the marine - or "typhoon shelter" as it was called - and would venture out every weekend to one of the glorious bays or beaches around the island.

Round the Island excursion ferry

In the 1960s the Hong Kong & Yaumati Ferry Company ran Saturday afternoon excursions Round-The –Island that were very good value at HK$2.50 for a two and a half hour trip. The vessel set out from the Central piers and followed the north coast of the island. When reaching the Lei Yu Mun Gap if there was an ocean swell outside the harbour things could get very interesting.
