Yung Shue Wan (traditional Chinese: 榕樹灣) is the main population centre on Lamma Island, Hong Kong. It has a population of approximately 6,000.

The village is a mix of residential properties, shops and restaurants. Yung Shue Wan gives a Mediterranean feeling when walking through it. In addition to the indigenous residents, the quiet and laid-back lifestyle make it an attractive and popular living location for middle-class commuters. It is popular with expatriates.

It can be reached by ferry from the Outlying Islands Ferry Pier No. 4 in Central, which takes about 30 minutes, or from Aberdeen, which takes about 25 minutes.
