Two main rivers run into the haven, Ho Chung River at the west and Tai Chung River in the north west. Tides, sea currents and river drifts form alleviates and beaches in the haven, although the tidal flow is of minimal strength. A number of smaller streams run into the haven, notably one at the extreme north western edge, just north of Pak Sha Wan. The mangrove area surrounding this stream is a good place in Hong Kong to see the black-capped kingfisher, it is not scenic, small in area and it can be accessed at high tide by dinghy only, nevertheless black-capped kingfishers are commonly sighted.
