Here is a video of our longest and most exciting kayak trip in HK so far. The dune TI was stripped down to kayak mode. It was the first time I went in kayak mode and I was very impressed with the performance. It was much faster than the red Oasis that went along with us.

In the video, we went under the four scenic arches near Sai Kung, Hong Kong, as well as a gorgeous beach called Long Ke Wan in Sai Kung Country Park. The trip took 8.5 hours and was a lot of fun!

This region used to be the home of a supervolcano some 140 million years ago, and the column patterns seen throughout the video are a result of the solified ash from the volcano.

Cheers,
