Hác-Sá Beach is popular with swimmers and sunbathers. The water is clean although it often appears brown because of silt from the Pearl River. Hác-Sá Beach has the long beach, with its unique black-tinged sand ("hac sa" means "black sand") inviting walking by the sea. Along the beach are a youth hostel, the Youth Centre for Water Sports, and a sports complex with an Olympic-size swimming pool, children's pool, tennis courts, and a sports field. There are also playgrounds, picnic and camping areas, and a variety of snack stands, cafes, and restaurants.
Hac-Sa, means black sand beach, just look at the colour of the sand it is self explanatory.
