Recently it is crazily hot in Hong Kong, around 35 degrees with strong sun during daytime. So my friend and I planned to have our first time paddleboarding here and chill in the water. However, I think we chose a wrong place for paddleboarding as the waves there were too strong and I barely could stand on the large board!
It's good to take some nice pictures before I fell down into the water thousands time afterwards.
I found this picture on Google and this is the real view from Big Wave Bay in Shek O.
My taiwanese friend Eva falls in love with paddleboaring and she has great talents in it. How come she never fell into the water?
If you ask me what are the interesting outdoor activities you can do except shopping and fine-dining in Hong Kong, I will tell you this water sport with reasonable prices is worth to try here:) It is so great to be alone on the board to look at the sky and mountains, and listen to the sounds around the nature. So peaceful! Next time I will try to do it in Vancouver!! It must be so awesome when you play paddleboarding around the beautiful island :)
Sometimes it's pretty good to leave the comfort zone we set for ourselves and try something new and take some challenges in our life. Then you will have some more realizations for your life and at least we can know more about ourselves :)
Enjoy the time with yourself and listen to what your heart says.
難得在香港，我跟台灣來的好朋友Eva一齊到香港石澳大浪灣玩立槳衝浪(Paddleboarding)。香港每天都很熱，大概都35度以上，太陽曬到我只想躲在家或是跳下水！但是這次我想我們選錯了地點，大浪灣有名的是衝浪，雖然當天浪比平常來說不是大，但一點點的浪也讓我們很難站在板上划，一站超過幾秒就已經掉進水裡了。我知道國外的人都喜歡站在板上繞著島划來划去，但大前題是那裡都沒有浪。他們也喜歡在板上做瑜珈拉拉筋，我也有試過，其實蠻考驗我們的平衡力的，真的蠻好玩！如果下次來香港不想只去商場逛街或是嘗美食而已，去香港的沙灘玩玩或是租一些板子去衝一下浪也是個不錯的選擇啊！
