History
On 11 March 1979, about 100 Vietnamese refugees aboard the Skyluck freighter jumped ship and swam to Lamma Island. About half of them were picked up at sea by police, while the other half mainly landed at Hung Shing Yeh Beach. They were all captured by the police.

The beach building was completed by the Regional Council in 1997/1998. The new structure comprised changing rooms, toilets, a first aid room, a staff office, a catamaran store, a lifeguard lookout, and waste treatment facilities.
