Hong Kong is part of a network of more than 260 islands; those further from the mainland are known as the outlying islands. Ferries regularly chug out to a handful of these peaceful isles from the Central ferry piers. Lamma and Cheung Chau are both good choices to see traditional island life or head to the tiny serene Po Toi for its excellent fish restaurant, Ming Kee. Hong Kong Tourist Association (which offers a multi-lingual visitor hotline on + 852 2508 1234) can help with bookings.
