　　香港有二十三个郊野公园和四个海岸公园，让市民和游客欣赏香港的大自然的魅力景色。
　　香港虽是现代化的都市，但境内的超过一千平方公里土地，约四分之三仍是郊野。香港政府为了保护和发展郊区，开设了郊野公园，这一方面是为了保护大自然，另一方面向香港市民和游客提供郊野的康乐和教育设施。海岸公园则是在海边的离岛划出来的。郊野公园的群山之巅，有草坡茂林。海岸公园的大海之滨，有浅滩岩岸。从海岸公园的海边远眺或由郊野公园的山巅下瞰，均可见香港的山水相连，风光如画。
　　香港的郊野公园和海岸公园都是免费进入。香港的郊野公园之中，八仙岭郊野公园是其中较著名的一个。八仙岭因有八个山岳而冠名八仙，此公园是全香港最具挑战性的山脊步行径所在地之一。最佳选择就是从水塘由北往南走到沙螺洞，那里有景色如画、年代久远的村庄、林木与田野。八仙岭还有一个感人的故事，1996年，香港一家中学的师生到八仙岭郊野公园郊游，当时有学生在烧烤之后没有处理好火种，酿成山火，两位老师和一班学生被大火困在一个山崖，两名带队的老师为了拯救学生，不把全部学生撤离险境就决不肯离去，结果不幸身亡。香港政府为了纪念两位教师，在八仙岭修建了一个春风亭。春风亭的名字，是缅怀两位教师春风化雨、舍身救人。春风亭内有这个事件的介绍，还有一幅很感人的对联。看过春风亭，会感受到香港暖暖的人情味。

　　海岸公园之中，比较著名的是东平洲海岸公园，该处有多样化的海洋生态，遍布茂密的珊瑚群落，有超过六十种石珊瑚，同时有超过一百三十种珊瑚鱼类及超过一百种海洋无脊椎动物。在海洋植物方面，东平洲海岸公园有四十多种海藻。在其沿岸地带，长满棕色、红色及绿色的海藻床，是香港海藻床之冠。该公园海水清澈，肉眼可以清晰看到水下的珊瑚和鱼类。

　　(1)“旗山星火”，乃八景中之首景，它与历代八景中的“香江灯火”、“飞桥夜瞰”均指从太平山顶观看夜色中的港岛如群星满天的万家灯火之瑰丽景色。
