As described by the tour guide, ping chau is its original island name, it is also known as Tung Ping Chau because Ping Chau is an offshore island located in the northeast corner of Hong Kong and is close to the border with Guangdong Province in mainland China.

Tung Ping Chau is made up of sedimentary rock after a series of major volcanoes erupted during the Jurassic period. A special gift, Tung Ping Chau's rock, can be found everywhere on the beach, each piece of rock is definitely unalike and it is a gift of nature.

Dick and Frank (the fat one) are my friends and they went together with me, Frank lai who was a qualified diver having a Class-3 Diver qualification, but not diving almost 15 years.Tung Ping Chau is a very good place for all divers, there are over 60 different species of coral and 35 species of algae in the beach. In fact, some say that Tung Ping Chau has the only diveable sites in Hong Kong.

At the island's southeastern end are two huge rocks known as the Drum Rocks, the people called the rocks as "Kan Lau Shek".
