Nudism

In 1932, a European Lam Part (林伯氏) set up a nudist club in Heung Fan Liu (香粉寮) in Sha Tin. He later sold the premises in 1938 because the building of Shing Mun Reservoir in 1935 and the Japanese invasion of China in 1937 seriously affected his business.

Between 1938 and 1941, he used his boat to take his nudists' club members to the bay to continue their gathering. The number of members reached its height, 20.

During the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong (1941–1945), he lost his boat and the club's activities was interrupted. He rented boats instead to take the members to the bay and renamed his club to sunbathing club 1950s.

In 1960s all nudist activities halted owing to insufficient participants.
