About this event
De Grendel Wine Estate, in association with Springbok Wines, brings you a sunset beach braai day on a secluded beach on South Lantau.
What is the day all about?
Beach, braai (BBQ), wine, sun, swimming & fun. A relaxed and easy going afternoon/evening where you can take in the beauty of one of Hong Kong's most secluded beaches and enjoy a typical South African braai accompanied by some incredible wines from the De Grendel wine estate.
The venue
Mong Tung Wan, a secluded beach on South Lantau, is off the beaten track and not accessible by regular public transport. Once a film location for the famous film *Double Impact (1991)* starring Jean-Claude Van Damme & Bolo Yeung. It is now home to The Hong Kong Outpost, a Homestead in the re-making, built on true old-fashioned values with sustainability top of mind.
