Embark on a unique ecological journey to a picturesque island just off the bustling city of Hong Kong. This immersive experience is a perfect blend of education, art, and environmental consciousness, offering travelers a chance to explore the pristine estuary of Lamma Island while engaging in a hands-on upcycling shell art workshop.

Lamma Island, known for its tranquil landscapes and rich biodiversity, serves as the ideal backdrop for this ecological guided tour. As you venture through the island's intertidal ecology, you'll be guided by an experienced ecological tutor who will unravel the mysteries of the ocean and its delicate ecosystem. Learn about the importance of waste reduction and recycling as you collect shells along the shorelines to be transformed into unique pieces of art.

The workshop itself is a creative haven where you can unleash your artistic talents while contributing to environmental conservation. Using recycled materials and shells collected during the tour, you'll be guided through the process of creating beautiful shell art pieces that not only serve as souvenirs but also as a reminder of the importance of sustainable practices.

During the tour, you'll have the opportunity to visit Sok Kwu Wan Fishing Village, a charming coastal settlement that offers a glimpse into the traditional way of life in Hong Kong. Indulge in a fresh seafood lunch at Lamma Rainbow Seafood Restaurant, where you can savor the flavors of the ocean while supporting local sustainable practices.

Join us on this transformative experience and be a part of the movement towards a more sustainable future.

The intertidal zone is the area where the sea and the land meet. It is submerged by the sea water when the tide rises, and emerges from the water when the tide recedes. The ecology of the intertidal zone is a miracle of life, and those organisms that inhabit this area must have special adaptations to cope with the changing tides and environment. You will be led by a professional ecology instructor and use telescopes to search for small creatures unique to the intertidal zone, and gain an in-depth understanding of how these creatures survive under rising and falling tides. The instructor will explain the causes of tidal phenomena and the importance of intertidal ecosystems to the surrounding environment. At low tide, you will walk on the mudflats to find and observe various small creatures for yourself, while learning about their ecology and the operation of the food chain. Waste reduction workshops aim to promote environmental protection and sustainable living, encouraging people to reuse and recycle materials to reduce waste. We hope to draw participants’ attention to environmental protection and waste reduction through their understanding of this unique ecosystem, and then encourage people to reuse and recycle materials through workshops to reduce waste.
