"Sharp Island, another Geopark attraction of the Sai Kung Hoi Arts Festival, features Hong Kong's famous pineapple bun rocks, and has a tombolo emerging only at low tide," Chan continues. "Last but not the least, visitors can check out the story room in the tranquil fishing village of Kau Sai Chau for an introduction to the history of the village. The exhibition comes with a display of fishing tools. The village's magnificent Hung Shing Temple is a declared monument.
"The festival, with its creative artworks and innovative activities, has been successful in attracting young people," says Chan. "We have noted that youngsters from different backgrounds have shown interest in exploring these islands."
