Most of this sequence appears to have been filmed in the bit of water between Sharp Island (seen from the east in the first image) and Kau Sai Chau.

The Angel Strikes Again - Lily Ho (1968) - Port Shelter, Sai Kung
The gang is blackmailing a local airline to the tune of 5M dollars (insert Dr Evil meme) and have instructed them to put the money into the water in Port Shelter. The police follow the money in a local junk to try and capture the extortionists but it turns out they have been duped as the gang collect it from underwater using scuba gear.

Legacy of Rage - Brandon Lee (1986) - Kau Sai Chau and Tiu Chung Chau, Port Shelter
The scene where Michael and Brandon do some target practice with Michael's .357 Magnum was filmed in the waters between Kau Sai Chau and Tiu Chung Chau. In the top image we are looking south east towards Tiu Chung Chau and the beach shot in the second image was taken from Kau Sai Wan with Tiu Chung Chau on the left hand side.

Stoner - George Lazenby (1974) - Kau Sai Chau, Sai Kung
The bad guy's hideout is part of a temple complex somewhere near the coast. The temple itself is a studio set, but the lower entrance to the hideout is actually an old concrete box located on the southern coast of Kau Sai Chau in Port Shelter. Kau Sai Chau is perhaps better known for the its public golf course. We've actually seen the area in question a few times before on this log though. Jackie Chan filmed here for Project A back in 1983, you can see the post here.

Project A - Jackie Chan (1983) - Kau Sai Chau, Sai Kung
Here is a location with a bit of a story behind it (which is why it has taken so long to find). The problem was this - a seaside location with calm water (so sheltered from the open sea), with a large kiln, concrete block and small abandoned hut. I looked everywhere for a long time and could not find anything that matched. I gave up - it could have been anywhere along HK's vast 800km coastline.
Anyway, it turns out (with help from some shots from another film from Daniel of Hong Kong on Film) that this location is the gap between Kau Sai Chau and Jin Islands in Port Shelter.
I've never been here myself but know that there is a small restaurant here that is popular with boaters (because there is no way else to get there) but the shots from Panoramio suggest that the large chimney/kiln has been demolished (I suspect this was an artifact related to the nearby Hung Shing temple) as has the large concrete blockhouse. But there does seem to still be a small abandoned hut there (which I am sure you will be able to see when Dan puts up his own post on this location). The whole shoreline has been concreted and smoothed out, but the background remains the same. If you are wondering about the exact location here is a Googlegrab.
Kau Sai Chau to the north (this island is popular because it contains HK's only public golf course - but you still need to catch a boat to get there) and this area is on its southernmost part. The small cluster of squares to the left of the gap is a fish culture farm - quite popular here in HK for raising fish for restaurants and at one time blamed for the shark attacks that occurred in the early 90's because the fish food was thought to attract the sharks!
