There are no assigned seats. The way the seats face can change by flipping the row of seat backs! Note: We left Kowloon to tour Hong Kong Island on 10.13.24, Sunday, because there was a large marathon or bike race which blocked many roads. Thanks to great planning by Andrew!

I haven't been on a ferry since my childhood visiting relatives in rural Japan down in Hiroshima and the Star Ferry which is right beside the beautiful Clock Tower landmark is truly a sight not to be missed. Boarding the ferry is a breeze especially when you use an Octopus card much like the Suica card in Japan you're able to use it many forms of transportation and for shopping as well. With just one tap we were on our way. I followed the group and boarding is no fancy procedure get on and find a seat. It definitely goes pretty fast and was basically there in just minutes but the view from Victoria Harbor was breathtaking. Kowloon Public Pier is nice and a lovely gathering place offering lovely views which is a place that I'd is definitely a place to sea. Thank you!

It is nice to ride at night to see the beautiful city of Hong Kong and Kowloon. Going to this pier is a little bit of a walk from World Wide Center - that's where we exited from the MTR. We just followed the sign that led us here. You can ask people if you get confused with the signs. Most of them are nice. It was a leisurely walk though since we are not in a hurry. We took our time, checked out the buildings that we are passing and the big Ferris wheel that we hope to ride next time. There are stores around the pier and vending machines too. You need a token or an octopus card to get in the waiting area. Ferry's come every 10 - 15 minutes apart I think.

Ferries come once every 30 minutes or so, which isn't too bad considering the number of people who take the ferry. There aren't many seats in the waiting area, but this waiting area is VERY nice. It has a coffeeshop, a convenience store, and comfortable chairs. Departing from Sok Kwu Wan, it took roughly 20-30 minutes on a beautiful, air conditioned boat to get to Central. There aren't a lot of people who take this ferry in the afternoon, so there's plenty of space! The cost of the ferry was 40HKD, so it was rather pricey, but it's really worth the time that you spend on this ferry. It's VERY convenient for folks who either live in Central and work in Lamma Island, or vice versa.

From the experience that my friends and I went though, paying a bit extra for first class was worth it. Originally, all of us had planned on going to Macau on the cheapest route (via economy class), but on the day of, most of the seats had been sold out and only first class was available. Furthermore, the time selection was quite limited with other economy seats, so boom, first class we went. Prior to boarding, you would first secure your ticket, go through security / customs check and then wait in the boarding area. Do keep in mind that the queue does grow long quite fast and there will be people with luggage. My suggestion is to wear comfy footwear and no heels / flip flops due to the highly probable chance that your feet will get rolled over by the rolling suitcases. Boarding itself was quite troublesome. Not only do you have to fight through the crowd to get on the ferry, but you will have to endure some minor elbowing and pushing as people rushed through. Once you get to the ferry, economy class will be seated on the bottom deck while first class get seated at the upper deck. If you're in a group, make sure to indicate that when purchasing your ticket so that you and your group can be seated relatively close together. For first class perks, you do get complimentary beverages and a cute box full of small snacks. Seats are super comfortable and the ride itself was super smooth. If you like taking pictures, there are windows everywhere in the upper deck, so snap away those pics at your heart's content. Plus, the atmosphere was quite relaxing and quiet, so taking a one hour nap is a pretty idea too. Upon departure, first class does have priority in leaving first which proved to be a plus for my friends and I because we did beat the crowd in reaching the customs area. Overall, I highly recommend going first class for a ferry ride to Macau if you can afford it / cost doesn't matter much. Hassle free and the flexibility in time is a major plus, especially when you're purchasing the tickets the day of.

The cabin is air conditioned and it feels like travelling on an airplane (similar seats, boarding). When leaving HK and entering Macau, you go through customs. So, don't forget to bring your passport. The customs process is quick and easy. The only thing on which they could improve is online ticketing. I tried MANY times to buy tickets online and couldn't get it to work. It's one of those websites that doesn't like foreign credit cards. Too bad. They had better deals online. But, with the website not working for me, I purchased my tickets at a Kowloon ferry ticketing office on the prior day and it worked out fine.

And it seems to be there are a lot more visitor going in for a day trip, even just for food. This is exactly what I did today with my family, just to go in for few hours and non stop eating for few hours. This ferry is the only way to get in cheung chau. A pretty straight forward public transportation. At the pier there are a lot of different ferry at different pier. There are a lot more island than I thought you can get to in hk. To go to cheung chau, the ferry is located at pier 5. They have 2 type of ferry. Fast ferry and the regular ferry. The fast ferry takes about 30 min, whereas the regular ferry takes 1 hour and has 2 different class, one with AC and on the lower deck without. It really depends how you like to explore and how leisure you like to spend your day. I actually don't mind riding a slower open air ferry to enjoy the ferry ride. But you may smell a bit of the diesel fuel since the lower deck is closer to the engine. And it seems to get hot in the summer. For the speed ferry, all seats are in the AC area. So you only get to sit indoor without a real glimpse of an ocean journey. When sometimes the ocean may get choppy, the fast ferry may cause some motion sickness. But you can always choose a seat back of the ferry in the middle section to be less impacted. There are restroom on the ferry, so you don't have to use the one at the pier , since there is only 1 at the pier, the wait gets pretty long. The ferry is decently clean and efficient. And pretty cheap to get a ride in. I will always recommend any visitor to stop by cheung chau for seafood during their visit in HK. Great seafood, less crowded, easy hike in and still share the unique cultural experience of HK - the fisherman's life that where the native Hong Kong resident had.

A high speed ferry we took from Zhongshan China back to Hong Kong and what a ride it was, hour and a half ride though at super high speed was very smooth and arrival was at China Ferry Terminal. Arrival is very similar as if you're entering from an airport going through various sections to get cleared along with our luggage we exit the area to wait for the rest of the group and I was blown to see that there's a CupNoodle Museum...whaaat! Apparently this ferry terminal has several shops as well and a whole CupNoodle Museum with a My CupNoodle Factory which I've done in Yokohama but never had I imagine to find that here lol! Getting out though be mindful not to just take an exit especially if you're planning to take a taxi to your destination as the taxi here aren't allowed to pickup at just any curbside especially we were standing at a bus stop and a designated taxi drop off so all drivers refused to take us as it wasn't allowed. There is a bus/taxi area that we found and went down there to find a designated taxi pick up which is lesson learned. Thank you!
