An unsteady finite difference model of depth-averaged two-dimensional flow for Tolo Harbor in Hong Kong has been developed based upon the numerically generated boundary-fitted orthogonal curvilinear grid system and the grid ``block'' technique. The model overcomes the Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy stability criterion constraint and can allow the specification of a flexible initial condition. It could be found from the numerical simulation that the flow exchange or tidal flushing in the inner part of the Harbor and in the small side coves is quite limited.
