Aberdeen, although still a fishing port, has in recent years experienced extensive redevelopment, and the big old junks left port long ago. Nevertheless, Aberdeen is still a highlight of any Hong Kong Island tour. Sampans are a good way of touring the harbor; anyone standing by the quayside will be accosted by dozens of sampan women, and bargaining is a must. Alternatively there are guided tours to take a closer look on the fishing fleets and the floating homes of Aberdeen's fishing folk. Not to be missed is the Jumbo Floating Restaurant, an experience all in itself.
