There are two grand beaches in Macau - Cheoc Van Beach and Hác-Sá Beach – located in the idyllic southern and eastern part of Coloane Island.

Adjoining Cheoc Van Beach you can find a large open-air swimming pool, several restaurants, a romantic pousada (Portuguese inn) and a Nautical Club with equipment for canoeing and windsurfing, all connected by a palm-lined esplanade.

Easily accessible by public transport, Hác-Sá (‘Black Sand’) Beach is Macau’s larger and more popular beach, both for its safe swimming and various other water activities like sailing and jet-skiing. Several BBQ-stalls ply their trade just off the beach, and families can enjoy tennis courts, swimming pool, picnic area, children’s playground, exercise area and several restaurants in and around the adjoining Hác-Sá Park.
