Tai Long Wan SK, located in the New Territories, specifically in Sai Kung province, is a popular surf spot with a stunning layout of four beaches that form a giant horseshoe bay. The area is known for its long white sandy beaches, which are great for catching swells. While it's about a 2-hour journey from the city, it's a hit with surfers looking for a day out or an overnight camping trip.

The surf here can be impressive, with the best conditions typically found when the swell comes from the Northeast. It can handle swell sizes starting from around 1ft (0.3m) and often goes up to 4-6ft (1.2-2m) during big swells, especially in winter when you can expect consistent 2-4ft (0.6-1.2m) waves. The waves can break both left and right over sandy bottoms, making it versatile for surfers. Since the spot can get rippy, it's more suited for intermediate surfers, especially when there’s a strong Northeast or typhoon swell. The best tides to hit are low, mid, and high, and if you’re lucky, you might enjoy a little 3' left shorebreak right in front of the store at Ham Tin during bigger swells.

Many surfers choose to camp overnight, which adds to the laid-back vibe of the place. When it comes to wind, northwest winds often provide the best conditions. Remember to check the swell and tide conditions before you head out, as they play a big role in the quality of your surf session.
