秀麗幽靜、風光旖旎的印洲塘位於船灣郊野公園東北岸。印洲塘一帶水域的生態物種和自然景致深具保育價值,1996年劃為海岸公園。
印洲塘山光水色,層巒疊嶂,仿如人間仙境,是一隅與世無爭的恬靜樂土。這裏風平浪靜,主要因為四周有群山作為障屏,阻擋海洋的波浪,夏天不受東南季候風影響,冬天也避過凜洌的西北季候風,氣候比香港其他地方乾燥,暴雨很少光臨。那種截然不同的氛圍和寧靜安詳的感覺,讓人難以相信自己身處於香港。
The picturesque, secluded and serene Double Haven (Yan Chau Tong) rests on the northeastern shore of Plover Cove Country Park. To conserve the wildlife and natural features of this lovely area, Double Haven was designated a marine park in 1996.
Double Haven is an idyllic arcadia embraced by uplands. It owes its celestial tranquil setting to the surrounding hills. Well shielded on four sides from the open sea, it is relatively unaffected by the southeast summer monsoon and northwest winter monsoon. The air is a little dryer than other parts of Hong Kong and there is seldom heavy rain. That unique serene mood is simply unimaginable in bustling Hong Kong.
