The water quality of the beach used to be very poor in late 1980s and early 1990s due to the discharge of sewage from the Shek O Village and squatter areas in the hinterland into the beach area. Thanks to enhancement of sewerage network in the area, water quality of the beach has improved to "Fair" or "Good" since 1999.
The beach is not open for swimming as there is no lifeguard service provided, and weekly grading is not available.
