chung hom kok

Although we're regular visitors to Chung Hom Kok beach, it was only this weekend that I noticed there's an old wartime pillbox over at the far end of the beach.

Here's the view along the beach, looking past the end of the second bbq-pit area.

If you walk along the water's edge at Chung Hom Kok beach, you'll see pretty shells like these. You'll have to look closely though, as each shell is only about half a centimetre across.

We try to get out for a walk in the countryside on Sundays, and in the sweaty weather it's good to end up at a beach for a swim and shower.

We arrived at this beach after originally planning to go to Stanley. I'd never been there before, but it is worth a visit - close to Stanley but much quieter than the actual Stanley beaches.
