15th Annual Cache In Trash Out Weekend

Where: Waterfall Bay

Why: Preserve the natural beauty of our outdoor resources!

Waterfall Bay is located on the East Lamma Channel off the coast of Wah Fu Estate and just minutes away from Cyberport.

It was said that the translation of Hong Kong's name in Cantonese (香港) was originated by fishermen working in the southern part of Hong Kong Island referred to Aberdeen Harbour as Hong Kong, which translates to "fragrant harbour". This name is attributed to the fresh water that flowed into Waterfall Bay from its namesake natural feature. The waterfall became well-known among British and European sailors, who would refill their fresh water supplies on their journey. This brought about the city's reputation for its abundant supply of drinking water. The name derived from the waterfall was later utilized to refer to the entire island and given the city its name.
