I lived at the top of Redhill in the mid 70s when it was only the older development on the top (beautiful flats, I think they were originally built for HK Electric staff? maybe?) and the new TC villas at the bottom and went to TC regularly (until the rapist moved into the area for a while then it was out of bounds)

I don't remember a beach hut, but it was a lovely little beach. Having seen the development around the whole Redhill peninsula, I can't think there's much left there at all though the beach may have survived.

The beach is still there, still small and lovely and quiet. Even now not many people know of its existence...and it's sitll rated as one of the cleanest beaches in HK. I live in Redhill so I just walk down there, it's a wonderful get away!

Hi Greg,

I finally made it along to see the beach. The pillbox you mentioned is still there, but I think the beach hut has long gone. Take a look at this short video to see if it is much different from how you remember it.

MrB

Thank you very much for going to turtle cove for me.
When I used to go, 1955-1962, there were NO buildings in sight, either on the beach or around it. Except for our HK Electric beach hut.
When I finally get my fathers 35mm slides,I can show you how a beach hut should be...
It IS a real family beach.It did not have any lifeguards then, but it did have a raft.T5F2S
In olden times there were NO steps down, just a path beaten by users such as our family down the near-vertical sides.
Glad to see the pill box is still around.
Doesnt anyone remember the beach fron older times?
Thanks again, much appreciated.
Greg
