Hoi Ha Wan (Chinese: 海下灣; Pinyin: Hǎixià Wān) or Jone's Cove is a bay at the north of Sai Kung Peninsula. It is a marine park in Hong Kong.
The location has a high biological value, as it shows a high degree of biodiversity. That is because the Park is a sheltered bay with pristine water quality, so that it provides a good marine environment for housing a great variety of marine organisms. Numerous kinds of corals can be ascertained under the sea, and it is a hot spot for diving. So as to keep the local ecosystems away from human intervention, fishing, particularly bottom trawling and uses of dynamites or poisons like cyanides, collecting sea products and corals are prohibited by law.
Famous quotes containing the word wan:
“With how sad steps, O Moon, thou climb’st the skies;
How silently, and with how wan a face.”
—Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)
