Underwater adventures A beginners’ guide to scuba diving in Hong Kong. By Nicole Slater With many of us missing our topical destinations this summer, you will be thrilled to know that you can still get your underwater fix in Hong Kong. While it’s not one of the world’s top scuba diving destinations, there is still plenty of marine life and seabeds to explore. Here is your guide to diving in Hong Kong.
When to dive Although you can drive all year round, the best times are from late March to early June and then again from September to early November. The warmer months can be affected by typhoons and prevailing southwest monsoons can bring in murk from the Pearl River to the west, which can dull the visibility. But on the up side the water temperature is mostly warm, making for an overall comfortable dive on a calm day. Be 24 | SAI KUNG
