There's more than one Big Wave Bay, but assuming you mean the one near Shek O, then my estimate would be similar to Puyi's, probably towards $100. I know that Big Wave Bay to the mid-levels is about $140.

300 is about the range you should expect

BTW, why would you take a taxi when other mode of transportation is widely available?

You can fit a decent size corpse in the back of a taxi.

Where are people getting these figures from? You can go from Causeway Bay to the airport (a distance of about 40km) for $340. Causeway Bay to Big Wave Bay (near Shek O) is a fraction of that distance. I get a taxi home from Big Wave Bay once or twice most years after hiking the HK Trail which ends there. I KNOW that it costs about $140 to the mid-levels, so it must be around $100-110 to Causeway Bay since the route to the mid-levels comes along the Expressway past CWB.

Big Wave Bay to Stanley I would guess at about a further $70-80.

When I lived in Happy Valley a taxi to Big Wave was always around 100-110 bucks. Guess from Big Wave to Stanley would be about the same.

you sure you haven't got a well constructed (yawn) 3rd World City put down for buses, before you go recommending them???

I am aspiring to be just OK!
