------------------------------
 |
| Make your way to the Ocean Park MTR station. |
 |
| Exit 'C' |
 |
| Head right, right off exit 'C' |
 |
| Follow Wong Chuk Hang road. It will merge into Island road. |
 |
| About 700m (10minutes) into your walk, you will see a path that parallels the road on your right, where the sidewalk stops. Take it. After a few meters, you will see stairs going down and a sign stating "Mills & Chung Path" |
 |
| The path will quickly get you to the seafront |
 |
| Deep Water Bay beach. First beach of the day! |
 |
| Immediately after the beach, take the Seaview Promenade which hugs the waterfront (right) |
 |
| Repulse Bay is now in sight (about 40 minutes into the walk) |
 |
| Beach road @ Repulse Bay |
 |
| Stay on Beach road. At this point, you are behind The Pulse mall. Quite a few beachfront restaurants there if the mood should strike |
 |
| Beach Road ends. Turn right onto South Bay road. |
 |
| The Middle Bay Beach will be on your right (stairs down), on your left is Ruby Court. |
 |
| Head to the right, immediately after Ruby Court |
 |
| Another 500m and you will see South Bay Beach in the distance |
 |
After you pass South Bay Beach (on your right), you will reach the end of South Bay road.
There's a flight of stairs at the end, take it. |
 |
Keep going straight. You will notice some white tiles on the ground.
Weird but that will do for a direction indicator! (That is the 'so-called' pigs' trail) |
 |
| Some more stairs |
 |
| You will see exposed rocks on your left. Climb these. Only spot that requires your hands but very short and not very difficult. Afterwards, the path is more clearly defined. |
 |
At the top of your climb, you will reach a fork in the path, head left.
The funnily twisted tree branch circled on the picture should help you identify you are there. |
 |
| I little while later, you will reach another fork (again, spot the tree). Head right. |
 |
| That's it, you are done with the pig's trail, head right onto Chung Hom Kok road. |
 |
| After about 750m on Chung Hom Kok road, you will reach this roundabout. Just before the roundabout on your left, you will see this blue sign and behind, a path with stairs going down. That's the one you must take. |
 |
| Go straight |
 |
| The 'Sea Breeze' "secret" beach. |
 |
| Here, you can go right and down the stairs to the 'Sea Breeze' beach, then left and up towards Stanley. |
 |
| The 'Sea Breeze' beach |
 |
| Right |
 |
| The Murray Building |
 |
| Walk all the way though the Stanley waterfront until you reach the roundabout. |
 |
| Go through the market |
 |
| First opening on your left in the market is the Stanley New street. Take it. |
 |
The terminus is at the end of the street.
Climb the stairs on your right, or just go around the slope |
 |
| Bus terminus. Quite a few buses will take you back wherever you want to go! |
