We're back working on the Blog!

Oops it's been a while since we've updated this. Been busy with a lot of things which we can of course talk in this blog. Before we do that however just wanted to update all on where we are in the season, in case you were planning on a visit to Sun Xi & Xi Shack. (Yes?!)

Below is a table that indicates we are just about entering the last month of our 3 month "low" season.



Depending on your interests in visiting us, generally the weather is warmer and sunnier from around March through to September and then from October to February it is a little less warm and likely to be wetter.

Alegria - Home of Sun Xi & Xi Shack

Turtles off Xi Shack Jetty


I kid you not. Whilst I didn't actually see this exact fella, just 15 feet from the Xi Shack jetty last Saturday morning June 7th around 09:30 - it was pretty much like it - just a tad smaller.

They have become quite a feature of the bar and at times it is reported that there can be many at one time. Not sure what's attracting them. Perhaps they come to smell the coffee or freshly baked bread!

A Great 4D 3N Getaway Package All-IN for just HKD 700 per person per day!

Now seriously if someone said to you you can have an all-in short holiday for just HKD 700 per night - that's less than USD 100 per night - you'd have to be expecting some kind of catch. Well there's no catch here at Sun Xi as we are still in our opening promotions phase and pleased to welcome those adventurous folk who'd like to try out something different.

So we're offering the following package at the all-in rate of HKD 2,800 - no catches! and subject only to the availability of the airfares at the time of booking.

So when is the best time to come?

Now that all depends on exactly what you want to do - either up in the cool mountains in Lepanto at Sun Xi Resort - or down at the hot and humid sea-side in Alegria at Xi Shack.

For Xi Shack it helps of course to know what the tide and wind conditions are, and this is what I am going to post here for you to help "pick your dates"

For swimming, sun-bathing and generally messing about in, on and under the water at Xi Shack the months of March through to September are a lot better than October through February. See our earlier posting on the seasons.

Also with 3 metre tides between LOW and HIGH water it can be a disappointment if you've come along way to find out that the high tide is around midnight and there is only 18 inches of water above the corals that day.

So here are some good swimming days and times at Xi Shack in the coming months:
