The site contains a mature mangrove community, progressing from the high zoned mangroves of the landward fringe to the pioneer species at the water edge. Amongst them is Bruguiera conjugata which is becoming rare in Hong Kong. Moreover, this mangrove stand provides the only known habitat in Hong Kong for the large mangrove pulmonate snail, Ellobium polita (Ellobiidae).

相關風險 Degree of Hazards
由於該地點靠近警察局和邊境圍牆,尖鼻咀相對地受較好好的保護,但任何現有或新的魚塘/鴨場的任何進一步開發或類似的前濱活動都可能破壞這個紅樹林社區。
Although the site appears to be well protected due to its proximity to the Police Station and by the Boarder Fence, any further development of existing or new fish ponds/duck farms or similar foreshore activities could destroy this mangrove community.
