For decades, a delicate balance has existed between Hong Kong’s surfing community and local authorities. But recently, a growing number of “no surfing” signs and police patrols at beaches have raised concerns among surfers.

In New Zealand we have rules on surfing. We have flags to swim between for lifeguards to look after us swimming. Surfing I think is allowed if 5-10 meters either side? Maybe the beaches are different there? Pretty difficult if you like surfing though 😞
