Mo Tat

Mo Tat (Chinese: 模達) is a small village in the southern part of Lamma Island, Hong Kong, on the spur of land that juts east and faces Aberdeen.

[1] Mainland China-based Agile Property Holdings had proposed in 2011 a private luxury development with a large 500-yacht marina, one 120-room hotel, 900 upmarket residential units across Tung O Wan to the northern part of the bay.

[2] The development site boundary would only have been 200 to 300 metres away from Sham Wan, a nesting ground for the endangered green turtle in the south of Lamma which is listed by the government as a "site of special scientific interest" with restricted entry.

Alan Leung Sze-lun, senior conservation officer for WWF Hong Kong, said his group was very worried about the project's impact on the endangered species.

[4][5] Ferries run to Central from Sok Kwu Wan, a village also 20 minutes by foot from Mo Tat.
