Heading to the south from Yung Shue Wan Public Pier, you can arrive at Tin Hau Temple in Yung Shue Wan. The temple was built by the locals in 1876, worshipping Tin Hau goddess, and it underwent substantial reconstruction in 1964. The temple was rated a Grade 3 historic building in 2010. The pair of western style lions standing guard at the entrance has a history of over a hundred years. Every Tin Hau Festival on 23 March of the lunar calendar, the temple is crowded with faithful worshippers.
To the south of Tin Hau Temple is Hung Shing Yeh beach, which possesses fine powdery white sand and clear waters, as well as some barbecue pits. Every weekend, it attracts lots of visitors and residents on Lamma Island to swim and barbecue the day away.
The Lamma Winds, the first commercial-scale wind turbine in Hong Kong, is located to the east of Tin Hau Temple. The power station features an exhibition area that showcases information on renewable energy.
