Marine conservation in Hong Kong

Société Générale’s visit to Yan Chau Tong

On the 24th April, Living Seas took 36 staff from Société Générale Hong Kong to visit Plover Cove Country Park and Yan Chau Tong Marine Park.

 

We met in the morning at Tai Po Market MTR station and after a short mini-bus ride we went on a walk from Wu Kau Tang to Lai Chi Wo, stopping off on the way to admire the beautiful vistas and to discuss some key aspects of the marine park and of the country park.

 

  1. The mangroves areas at Sam a Chuen and Lai Chi Wo.
  2. The Yan Chau Tong marine park’s situation and the challenges that it faces. (overfishing, pollution)
  3. The wonderful Hakka village at Lai Chi Wo.

We enjoyed a traditional Hakka village in the village courtyard, with a chat and games before walking back along the Double Haven section of the marine park.

A fun and interesting day finished back at Tai Po Market MTR station.
