Leo,

I'm no expert, though I've visited my daughter  when she lived there.
On the Island itself, at Repulse Bay there's a beach, and another at Shek O.


I imagine they've built beaches on Lantau Island along with the Disney
Hotels.

Stanley Bay has some, but I didn't see any one swimming there when we went
to the market.
I did see some wonderful strawberries, and when I went over to maybe buy
some, saw they were California grown.   ;-)
