“The surf scene in Hong Kong — a territory that includes more than 250 islands in the South China Sea — is concentrated at a few beaches that lack consistent year-round swell. But those beaches are relatively accessible to a city of about 7.5 million people. The best-known and easiest to access is Big Wave Bay on the east coast of Hong Kong Island, the main one in the territory.”
