Regional island tourism

Chen observes that in addition to pure natural scenery, Hong Kong's original fishing villages enhance the allure of its islands. This appeal attracts tourists from nearby markets, such as Southeast Asia. Additionally, there is potential to co-develop multi-stop travel products with other islands in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

In October, Guangdong province launched an island-hopping travel route that connects Nan'ao Island, Hailing Island, and other attractive islands in the province, offering nature sightseeing, leisure activities and exploration of maritime culture.
