Sai Kung District is comprised of Clear Water Bay and Sai Kung peninsulas on the east coast of Kowloon and offers a unique blend of traditional and modern elements. Historically a fishing village, Sai Kung Town now embodies a strong sense of community. The area is renowned for its serene surroundings, proximity to picturesque countryside hiking trails, and various ocean activities, including boating, kayaking, wakeboarding, standup paddleboarding (SUP) and more. Sai Kung is also notable for its growing array of waterfront seafood restaurants and pubs, in the village which expats in preferred residential areas love. Commuting is also convenient, with buses and taxis readily available, making it a 30-40 minute drive to Hong Kong's central business district. The nearby Choi Hung MTR station and Sai Kung Bus Terminal also ensure that you have an easy time going around in Hong Kong. Seaside charm is highlighted in Sai Kung Public Pier and you can stay in different Sai Kung hotels while exploring Sai Kung Beach.
Sai Kung is a low-density area. It offers two types of housing: low-rise villa complexes often with shared facilities like swimming pools, or village houses (standalone homes, detached or semi-detached) with private gardens, terraces or rooftops. Many apartments for rent or rental houses are high-priced mansions in proximity to Sai Kung's hotels, restaurants, or even Sai Kung's Bus Terminal. Village houses are usually pet-friendly and have high-efficiency ratios as the village houses must not exceed three floors and the area per floor must not exceed 700 square feet, so space is utilised to its best.
