Note: "X" The beach has been closed for swimming purposes.

Ungazetted beaches.

The following beaches have changed grading on this occasion:

Chung Hom Kok, Hairpin, Repulse Bay, St. Stephen's and To Tei Wan from "1" to "2"; Big Wave Bay, Deep Water Bay, Golden Beach and Tung Wan of Ma Wan From "2" to "3"; New Cafeteria, Kadoorie and Hoi Mei Wan from "3" to "4".

The changes are within the normal range of fluctuation of the bacteriological water quality of these beaches. The general deterioration of beach water quality is probably due to the recent heavy rainfall which would have caused the pollutants in the beach hinterland to be flushed into the sea water.
