Hebe Haven

Hebe Haven, also known as Pak Sha Wan (Chinese: 白沙灣; Pinyin: Báishā Wān; lit. "white sand bay"), is a harbour in the south shore of Sai Kung Peninsula in Hong Kong. The harbour has one opening to Port Shelter in its south. A long peninsula spanning south from Tsiu Hang (蕉坑; Pinyin: Jiāokēng) hugs the Hebe Haven and separates it from Inner Port Shelter (Sai Kung Hoi). Villages gathers along its shore and the haven harbours yachts and boats. There is Sea Scouting activity centre situated by the haven. The haven is an excellent natural harbour and is home to a number of yacht clubs, including the Shelter Cove yacht club (part of the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club), and Hebe Haven Yacht Club. There are numerous moorings and many boats distributed around the area along with a clearly marked navigational channel. The channel marks are not lit at night.
