A pathway information sign says that 'along the coast of Sok Kwu Wan there are several grottoes about 10m wide and several tens of metres deep...named by the locals as Kamikaze Grottoes. It is said that during the Second World war, the Japanese army took Lo So Shing as a naval base and thousands of soldiers were stationed there. The Japanese had a plan to hide some speedboats in the grottos, which would launch a suicidal attack on the Allies' warships, if they passed by. But the war ended before the work had been completed.' Some people think that these caves were used more for the storage of munitions.
