Let the games begin: Hong Kong’s newest playground
Go Park Sai Sha offers a wealth of facilities for the entire family – all in a stunning location
Sitting between Ma On Shan and Sai Kung town, the Sai Sha area is blessed with nature. It is embraced by Three Fathoms Cove to the north, within view of picturesque islands and lush mangroves, and framed by the majestic Ma On Shan mountain to the south.
As part of an integrated development by Sun Hung Kai Properties, the area is being transformed to include about 9,700 homes and upgraded infrastructure, including recreational and community facilities at Go Park Sai Sha – a 1.3 million sq ft mega-complex bringing together sport, entertainment, leisure and dining offerings. These enhancements will benefit both future and existing residents, turning the area into a vibrant new community, the developer says.
“Since opening, we’ve welcomed more than 10,000 visitors every weekend. It has truly become a playground for families in Hong Kong,” says Judy Chow, general manager of leasing at Sun Hung Kai Real Estate Agency. “We hope that Go Park Sai Sha will attract more people to stay and explore Hong Kong, becoming a new travel destination in the city.” Opening to the public earlier this year, the ambitious project is part of the Sai Sha integrated mega-development undertaken by Sun Hung Kai Properties. Chow adds that the park’s facilities and leisure spaces are designed to accommodate the different needs of multi-generational families.
Sport for all
One of the biggest draws at the leisure hub is Go Park Sports, an outdoor space that spans 1 million square feet featuring professional venues for popular sports including football, tennis and golf, as well as emerging sports such as lacrosse, pickleball and padel.
“While Hong Kong’s top athletes often train at designated sports institutions not open to the public, Go Park Sports aims to be both a sports park and a sports academy for everyone,” says Andy Chu, its director. “We hope to popularise sports and contribute to the sports industry of Hong Kong through our space.”
To cater to both sport enthusiasts as well as beginners of all ages, the team at Go Park Sports has curated a wide array of activities. Many of these sports are partnered with reputable organisations, ensuring quality and credibility. The football facility, for instance, is in collaboration with Arsenal Football Development Hong Kong, supported by London’s renowned Arsenal Football Club.
The golf driving range provides coaching and lessons with the Australian Golf Academy, while former Olympian swimmer Alex Fong Lik-sun will run programmes by the Hong Kong Swimming Academy at the complex’s indoor pool.
