Hong Kong Gold Coast is a private housing estate situated close to Castle Peak Bay in So Kwun Wat, Tuen Mun, within the New Territories of Hong Kong. This project, developed by Sino Group, consists of 20 residential towers completed in two stages (1990 and 1993). The estate also features a resort hotel, shopping complex, yacht and country clubs, marina, and a beach.
History
In the early 1980s, Sino secured a land parcel of roughly 100 acres for development. The initial phase delivered five residential buildings, each 28 storeys high, finalized in 1990. The resort hotel commenced operations three years later, in 1993.
The project encountered environmental compliance issues, with Sino Estate Management receiving several fines from the Environmental Protection Department due to insufficient sewage treatment facilities. These sanctions included a $15 million penalty in March 1993, a $5,000 fine in early 1994, and two separate $100,000 fines imposed in 1995.
Features
As the largest tourist destination in Tuen Mun, Hong Kong Gold Coast encompasses the Hong Kong Gold Coast Hotel, a convention centre, retail mall, marina club, the Golden Beach, and the newly established Hong Kong Gold Coast Dolphin Square.
Golden Beach stands out as Tuen Mun's largest public beach and holds the distinction of being Hong Kong's first man-made beach. It features a 480-metre promenade adorned with tropical vegetation including palm trees and flowering plants.
Education
Gold Coast is located within Primary One Admission (POA) School Net 71. This school net comprises several aided schools that receive government funding but does not include any government-operated schools. These educational institutions are situated near Gold Coast in So Kwun Wat.
