Beaches

If your teen is looking to enjoy a day out in the sun, Hong Kong has a wealth of beautiful beaches that are only a short hop on public transport away, if you’re not already lucky enough to have one within walking distance! Those seeking a little more privacy on a smaller, more remote beach might prefer a junk boat trip. Most will even do catering packages, so grab your friends and their kids (or your teenager’s friends) and prepare for a little getaway. Just be sure to bring sunscreen and don a swimsuit if you plan to get your feet a little wet!

Hikes

Hong Kong may be best known for its skyscrapers and closely packed buildings, but there’s also plenty of nature to explore in this concrete jungle. The city has several great hiking paths, with something for everyone, whether you’re an amateur who prefers flat ground or a professional who loves high altitudes. There’s no better way to get some exercise than up on a hill, taking in amazing views of the city from up high (not to mention all the Insta-worthy shots!).

Public Libraries

With 70 static locations and 12 mobile ones, a public library can be just the place for some quiet alone time for your teens. Our favourite is the Central Library in Causeway Bay, with a wealth of facilities and the largest collection of books. If they want to take something home at the end of the day, getting a library card is as easy as filling in a form –  you can even register your HKID as a library card.

Sassy Mama Tip: To avoid fines, renew your book loan or even request for a book to be transported to the closest library to you, get the public libraries app on your phone. Simply log in and you’ll be sent reminders to renew or return your books – so no more marking calendars.
