After seeing all the sights, you will have had a large dose of
Hong Kong crowds.
If you want to get away, you can try Lamma Island.
It is a small island still relatively quiet, with a few trails
on it. And: no cars!! (Well, except a few small go-cart-like
goods vehicles.) On it you will find small shops, some paved
trails, a few small vegetable fields, a few beaches, and seafood
restaurants.
You can take a ferry from one of the outlying island piers
just west of the Star
Ferry pier in Central.
(At the time of writing, it is pier number
4.)
The ferry fare on weekdays is a bit cheaper than weekends.
The island is also quieter. If you really like to get some laid
back time, there are holiday lodges for rent at quite reasonable
prices by Hong Kong standard.
