The newly-completed inclined liftconnects Yi Pak Bay, Positano and the nearby residential areas, providing access to the conveniently located taxi stand in Yi Pak Bay. The enclave also offers exclusive 24-hour ferry service to Central, and shuttle buses from designated pick-up and drop-off points to MTR stations#.

Hong Kong Resort is also dedicated to promoting environmental protection in the community, by arranging a wide variety of activities for residents and visitors, including the flea market for second-hand items, barter events, and glass bottle recycling. Bottles can be recycled into eco-bricks to decorate the estates and introduce the message of eco-friendliness to the neighbourhood. Recently, the developer has also introduced food waste decomposers to encourage residents to recycle and reduce food waste. After years of exceptional performance in green planning and environmental management, Discovery Bay has earned deserved recognition with the “Green Development Award” for a number of years.
