About

Conic Island or Fan Tsang Chau (Chinese: 飯甑洲) is a small uninhabited island in Sai Kung District, Hong Kong.

Its Chinese name derives from it being in the shape of "甑" (Wade–Giles: tseng; Jyutping: zang6; Cantonese Yale: jahng), a crockery used in ancient times in steaming rice.

There is a small lighthouse and a basic dock on the island.
